Is drive d formatted as fat32 by any chance? If it is, then that's the
problem. Fat32 cannot contain single files larger than 4.0G. Your
options are to put the vdi file on a ntfs file system, or to make a
vdi image the size limit of which will not be more than 4.0G, although
you want to go lower most likely, somewhere about 3.8 or 3.9G.
