Richard,
Thanks for doing some testing on my behalf - I think the best thing
from here would perhaps to examine exactly where our setups differ.
My machine is set up as the following:
Asus P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP
4GB RAM
WD 500GB SATA Hard drive (x2)
Liteon DVD+-RW
nVIDIA 7950GT
BIOS is set up fairly standard, with the exception that the drives are
set to run AHCI.
Vista Ultimate x64 installed, no deviation from any defaults along the
way - system drive partitioned into 60gb C drive, rest as D. Second
drive set up as E. Not a member of a domain, just the basic install.
No aftermarket drivers installed, except for Intel ICH8 driver for hard
drive (actually i have tried copying with and without this installed).
No software installed except AV - I have tried Avast and Trend Micro to
same efect. NIC set for DHCP.
I can copy files on and off the drives at will from locally connected
devices (ie DVD, local hard drives, memory sticks, etc). I can set up
a share on the Vista machine and copy files on and off it using the
remote XP machine. I can download files from the Internet without
issues - and store them basically anywhere.
I can attach to a network share, run, create, modify and delete without
issues.
If I try to drag a file (or folder) from the network share onto the
local drive, however, it fails.
Are any of the above settings any different at all than yours? What
motherboard and chipset are you running? What AV are you running?
What exact version of Vista do you have?
Any assistance would be appreciated!
