I have a 512meg SD card which i formatted in FAT32 file system by mistake, so i formatted the card again but this time FAT as it should be, but now i cant fit all the roms i had on it before when it was FAT32, its like the cards full capacity is being blocked, as it thinks the cards full, but theres only like 200 odd meg on the card, when it says

'Cannot copy Harry Potter: The directory or file cannot be created'

Why does this happen?

The FAT filesystem is limited to 64 files per directory.

Just create directories on the SD and make sure you don't have more then 64 files in each one.
