The problem may be do to your (relatively) old version of rsync.
I was able to get rsync to work on XP only after upgrading to rsync version
3.0 and using rsyncd (rather than rsync).

Several others have noticed similar issues with isolated files.
Though I can't say I have backed up any files that big.
