I recently built a computer of mine. Now I want to transfer a load of data from my external hard drive to this new computer of mine. The problem is that it would always crash right in the middle of the transfer. I fixed the crash by reinstalling the drivers and updating the BIOS. But when I try the transfer again, it freezes, and the computer returns to the desktop state. Tried another external too and plugged it in different USB ports and the same thing happens.
I have replaced the RAM before thinking it was a RAM problem. I've also done memory tests using MemTest86, but no errors were found. Everything is connected properly, no loose connections. The CPU is not overheating. SpeedFan and CoreTemp says it stays at around 30C. One thing that I did note was that when I was installing Windows XP Professional SP2, a bunch of files couldn't be copied from the CD to the system, and they were skipped. Most of the files were .dlls, .exes, and .sys. Could the problem be the faulty XP disc that needs replacing, or is it something else?
Here are my computer specs:
Asus P5N-E SLI motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz processor
G.Skill 2GB DDR2 800MHz Dual Channel RAM
Seagate 500GB hard drive
XFX GeForce 8600GT Video Card
Lite-On 20x DVD Burner
Windows XP Professional SP2
