Lynda, why not instead proceed via a direct import of your Family Origins file, instead of a GEDCOM transfer?
Go to File > Import in RM4 and click the radio button next to "Family Origins (version 4 and later)", and click the "I know where the file is" button. Navigate to your FOW file (you'll need the other associated FO8 files with it in the same folder), and proceed from there.
Not sure about the error message, but in the unlikely event that you don't have enough hard drive space to create the new file with the data from your FO8 file, you'll need to somehow free it up.
