You should be able to play them, they're in AVI format. Fraps records in raw video, which explains the file size. To conserver space, you use a video compression program, like VirtualDub.

Make sure you have DivX installed, or at least the codec, so you can compress with DivX and cut down the video size to <100meg.

If it doesn't allow you to record, how are you outputting 3gb+ video files?

As for the main issue, I have no idea.
