its coz your disk is of type FAT32 and the files which are being extracted are maybe more than 4.5 gig (single file size). format your disk using the NTFS system and then retry

Try freeing up 14 -15 gbs of space in c-drive or change the location of temp directory to e drive which has 45 gb of free space
