Subject  :  Another slowwww xxcopy and even xcopy wont work
Size(KB) :  1



I'm attempting to upgrade my old 10gig hard drive to a 200gig.

Both are WD Cavaiar drives 2meg and 8meg buffer respectively, and 
I'm currently using W2K-SP4 with all the latest MSUpdates.

I have attached the 200gig as a CSS master on the 2nd IDE.

My 10 gig is partitioned into 4 logical drives-
C: - is Win98, but I dont use it anymore...
D: is my W2K drive, then there's E and F...

I also have a 120gig CSS/slave I've been using for a year.

The BIOS recognizes my new 200 gig, and I have partitioned it into 
a few 10-gig drives for starters.

I have attempted to xxcopy C: N: /CLONE -
It runs for a while, slows down and eventually stops.

Same thing when I attempt to copy D: ... or E: or F: 

I have tried MS' XCOPY and the same thing happens there.

I've even tried Explorer's copy and paste, and THAT slows down
to a crawl!

The C is fat32 and the D is NTFS - ditto for partitions on the 
new hard drive. The full format on these new partition executes OK.
Can't help thinking there's something very basic I'm forgetting. 
Any ideas?
