Basiclly Im trying to copy my games folder to my backup drive, but when its copied 15 - 20gb over I get a messege saying out of memory, but its got loads of memory free. Is there a fix for this prob?... Ive got the performance patch
 
na Zone alarm, and ive just tried turning that off and tried to copy the games again, but with no luck

Can you guys copy more then 20gb worth of stuff in 1 go in vista?
 
Yes there isn’t a file copy limit in Vista, its probably is to do with the the Nforce chipset you are using Vista is known to be bit iffy with them, are all your chipset etc drivers up to date?

I mentioned kaspersky as that is known to give the above error message while copying large file sizes.
 
Tried reinstalling those 2 patches for vista, but still cant copy much more the 16gb of stuff in 1 go, without it bringing a error saying "out of memory". I will just copy it using win xp.... I really hope that prob gets fixed, cos I would have been a tad screwed if I didnt have xp, for my backing up stuff.

Im using the chipset drivers that vista came with
 
I had this same problem last week when I was trying to copy about 10gigs worth of stuff.. I've got Kaspersky installed as well. Hopefully they'll bring out a patch for it at some point! :)
