Thanks Tom!

I'll give it a try - maybe it will improve the copying time too.

How do i actually get the patch - there does not seem to be any links to
download. I guess i have to request the patch from MS? Not sure of the
quickest way to do that.

Thanks

Sorry everyone, but I tried the patch and it didn't help with the
speed of the copy. I suspected it wouldn't because the article said
it addresses a "hang" while copying from a network drive - my problem
isn't a hang but a slow (5-8MB/sec) transfer. I had to call Microsoft
to get the patch 1-800-936-3500 make sure you have the article ID when
you call. Or you can email me and I can send it to you with the
password. We will get to the bottom of this, it's just a question of
when.
