Get some usable RAM to complete the operation unless you just have LOTS of time and are willing to sacrifice your data.
With bad RAM, anything you copy can not be trusted.
this isn't just PC1000 though... anyone know where I can get cheap ram for my hp pavilion dv5000?
Here's the latest update...
I can't leave it copying in the file manager. It seems I can only get the Volkov Commander 4.99 file manager to work right. While it is supposed to work with long file names.... it doesn't seem to. I keep getting errors where I have to hit OK or cancel because a file has too long of a name. I left it on over night and it got no where because a pop-up came up and I couldn't click OK or cancel.
As for slaving the hdd, I don't know how I could possibly do that -- I have a laptop (HP Pavilion dv5000/xppro, only a few months old).
I would get more ram, but I don't have the money. That's why I paid this ridiculous amount of money for the repair plan which apparently cannot be honored in Comp USA until AFTER the manufacturers warranty. So, I HAVE to send it off now which == KILLING my hdd while their at it.
File managers status:
[Volkov Commander 4.99] - works, but long file names don't seem to work and i can't automate this process at all
**[FastLynx 2.0] - trying now. seems to work wel, however, i worry about long file names... well see.
[Dos Command Center 5.1] - exceptions galore and aborts... doesn't work.
[File Wizard 1.35] - works WITHOUT ntfs therefore useless.
[File Maven 3.5] - crc-failure
THANKS!
