Is it mounted in a virtual drive? If so, unmount and then try to move.

Is the drive to which you're transferring the .ISO formatted with FAT32? If so, it cannot accept a single file larger than 4GB. Most DVD .ISO files will exceed that.

CWR03 - Tnx so much =) can i convert the hard disk to NTFS?will i loose the data on it?

Yes, and yes - in order to format a hard drive to NTFS, it will be erased. If it's a slave drive it can be converted easily through Windows by right-clicking and selecting Format.

Doesn't WinXP offer a utility that will convert Fat32 to NTFS without a reformat or data loss? I think I used that when I went from Win98 to WinXP.

I think you cannot go from NTFS back to Fat32 without a reformat.

You can convert from fat32 to NTFS with the CONVERT command:

convert /FS:NTFS C:

with no destruction of data.

It is a one way path AFAIK -- no going back to FAT32.
