Hey I've had issues transfering large or multiple files for a while.
The format doesn't seem to matter, but only to HD
IE: DVD to HD, Flash drive to HD, camera to HD.
On DVD's it says cannot read from source file or disk. on other sources it says cannot find the file specified. try again skip etc...
I installed a program callled total commander to see if this would do any better, it runs ok for a while, then gives up.
If I copy a large file 1GB plus it just gives up halfway thru.
If I splt the file and try and copy them all at once it will get so far then stop working usually after 20 or so files.
I have windows vista ultimate ediion SP1
I have tried the 2 fixes by microsoft:
Windows Vista Performance Pack (KB938979):
Windows Vista Compatibility Pack (KB938194):
Both of which say "the update does not apply to your system"
Other than this my computer is running well.
Hardware.
AMD XP 3500+
Asus K9N Neo-F mobo
1 GB generic 6400 ram.
250GB sata II HD Western Digital WD25 00ks 00mjbo
Problem has existed since first install, I tried re-installing a few times when i first bought vista, then assumed it may just be something that would be fixed with updates, as i had vista very near it's release.
Vista & chipset drivers fully updated.
Thanks in advance anyone for help.
edit: seems to happen with any file whether it originated on XP or Vista
