hi,

the problem doesnt come rom your pc but rather i think its from the external hard drive have you tried formatting it and then for file transfer?

try this with the external and then see what it does if its not good then rewrite here on the forum

Dear

as you said, I formated my portable hard disk eventhough when I started coping data from my laptop to hard disk. It copied some file after that it stoped with following given message

"Cannot copy "FILE NAME": Cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path and file name"

and when I want to delete file from portable hard disk, it deleted some file and stoped with following given message

"Cannot remove folder or file "Name": The directory is not empty"

I think above description may better explain you problem

I am waiting your response

thanks
sanjay
