Windows Forum / Windows XP / General Topics 1 / January 2008Can no copy relatively large files
Hie people, Got a little cahhlenge. My machine that has Win XP Pro SP2 can not copy relatively large files to completion over the network (TCP/IP). The copy starts and goes to a significant extent before bombing out (eish!!!) I belive it has to do with SP2 but dont quite know what know how to fix hence my appearance here. Any got a solution to my challenge?? Small files 10Mb copy with no problem. Thanks in advance, Mac D Mac How large are these files? How is the drive you are copying to formated? FAT32 or NTFS? How much RAM memory? Is there ample free disk space where you are copying to?  SignatureHope this helps.

RAM is 524Mb. The actual error messgae is Can no copy "file name": The network name is no longer available. Seraching around it seems this is a known issue but thing is no one seems to have posted a solution to it. > Mac > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > > > Mac D > Hie people, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Any got a solution to my challenge??

Are you aware that FAT32 has a 4GB file size limit? Oddly, even before XP, NTFS was standard, I'd have to delete sometimes 6 gig files from win98 PCs. It was most likely just a bug in win98/fat32.
