you can try searching for it. select the advanced option and then select by
size. then select specify size. IT does the size in KB so you need to set it
to atleast and then specify a size large enough to rule out most other
files. my math sucks but i will attemp to give you a figure that might work.
3 gig should be about 3000megs wich should be about 3000000kb now if your
not sure exactly what size it is, then drop that to somethign like
2,500,000 and it should display every file larger then that. look for it and
then find the path it lists.

someone else will probably corect my file sizes so if it doesn't work check
for corections. i'm probably off on my estimates.
