Thanks for the reply. I had already tried mapping the drives. Had also made sure that the files to be copied where not in use. Still the same problem exists between both XP systems without 98se in the mix. Thanks again.

New Info. Have had some time to look further into the symptoms. I have added a third system to the network: System #3 is Win XP Home The symptoms below describe all copy permutations of the three systems I can copy single or multiple files. I can copy single or multiple folders with multiple files. I cannot copy single or multiple folders that contain one or more subfolders. This is aggrevating to say the least, and for the most part defeats the purpose of networking. Thanks for any help...

Thanks for the suggestion. I do have other alternatives to accomplish the data transfer, but... that still leaves me with an uncorrected problem. Copies between the systems should be transparent. Thanks again

I am having difficulty copying files across my network. Below is a description of my problem. I have two systems networked via a cable/dsl router. System #1 is Win98SE System #2 is Win XP Home I can successfully browse each system from the other and have the proper permissions for file sharing. I want to transfer files from #1 to #2. From system #2: I open Windows Explorer and browse to the destination folder on #2 I open Windows Explorer and browse to the source folder on #1 (via network neighborhood) I select the folders to copy from #1 by highlighting and dragging them to the destination folder on #2 and dropping them. I immediatley get an error message "Cannot Copy File: Cannot Read from the Source File or Disk". If I perform the same procedure and select only one folder, the copy succeeds. If I perform the same procedure with three folders, the copy succeeds It seems as though the amount of data to be copy affects the success of the copy. Anyone have any ideas on what is preventing the en masse copy??? As always any help is appreciated.

Sonic, Thanks for the help. It work well just as you described. Was able to originally install the most recent INFs as well as onboard drivers and mb apps. Again thanks for the help.

What I want to do is apply the current INFs that I downloaded from the Intel site. http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df...dition〈=eng The instructions in the readme file associated with the download offer multiple ways to perform the update and as such have me confused as to which is applicable to my specific case. I do not wish to deal with each INF individually as I do not know what constitutes an INF or which ones apply to my chipset. If someone could look at the readme referenced above and point me in the proper direction, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I hope this is posted in the proper forum. I have just assembled a PC using an Intel D925XECV2 motherboard. I want to install the most recent versions of the INF updates as well as the on-board device drivers. The Intel documentation states that the INF updates should be installed before any other drivers. I have read the documentation that comes with the INF update file and it has left me somewhat confused as how to best accomplish this. What I have done: 1. Assembled the hardware 2. Flashed BIOS with most recent version 3. Enabled RAID in BIOS 4. Created RAID Volume 5. Started Installation of Windows XP Home 6. Installed RAID driver during XP install 7. Finished XP install. The next step would be to run the Intel Express Installer CD to install the INFs and drivers. But of course it will not contain the latest versions. I have not proceeded beyond this step as I want to install the most current versions which I have downloaded from the Intel site. Does anyone have knowledge of the best way to proceed from this point?? Thanks in advance for assistance that can be rendered.
