Re: [H] External drive issue
I've also noticed that AMD chipset motherboards have this problem as well. I only have a problem with large files copy to external HD's on one computer at the shop and it is a AMD system. Although, I have no problems with the nVidia intel based motherboards. I do not know if the OP has stated if it is an USB 2 or USB 3 HD. If USB 2 it could be that he should try another port, same if it is USB 3 :) It may fix the problem. I do not have problems on the Intel machines with Windows 7 64 bit or Windows 8 64 bit. I copy images and backup files that are in upwards to 200GB each with no problems. Also, note all motherboards are Asus (except for Dell machine used for Data Checks).

Re: [H] External drive issue
Tim, Thank you. You have helped keep rampant speculation in check. I only learned about this glitch here on the List. As I do not generally copy/move files of these sizes, I have never seen/experienced this glitch. Asus P5Q3 m/b.

[H] Change of status
As a founding member of our List, I have decided to move from semi-active to Lurker status. It seems that most on our List now use W7 or W8. I do not. I still use WinXPpro. BTW, 'Geforce Experience' does not work on WinXP. Shame on me. No trouble, I just removed it! Yes, I do have an upgrade plan, and I will do it...in my time. I find that our Hardware List has gelled down to just about anything loosely associated with 'hardware.' Fine. This is the will of the List. I do accept evolution. Please enjoy our List in the future. I remain amazed that we are still truckin'! Best, Duncan

Re: [H] Change of status
Everyone is a lurker on this list. I'm not sure why you feel the need for a change in status. I think the old Win95 list is still around in some form or fashion. You may find more folks there using XP than here. On 7/29/2013 4:59 PM, DSinc wrote: As a founding member of our List, I have decided to move from semi-active to Lurker status.

Thane, Thank you Bro. I do so know you deal in all the past trash. I will continue to grapple.

Re: [H] Change of status
Thanks Anthony, Your share is a big reason for my decision. I did W95 on this List. I did W98 on this List, and 2K and XP. Please be happy. I Lurk. Duncan On 07/29/2013 18:34, Anthony Q.

Re: [H] Change of status
Duncan, I've been a lurker since the over-clocking list and have always been behind the technology curve. I liked XP and when my old motherboard and single core Athalon got flaky, moved to Win7 last yearand a Sandy Bridge I5 mainly because I needed to run Autodesk Revit. It is so blazingly fast compared to what I've been used to and I am so painfully slow the older I get, I suspect this platform is where I'll remain. I have very little to offer, but I enjoy the groupimmensely. I might have been the last on the list to move to DSL. How did I survive! :-) Alden On 7/29/2013 7:05 PM, DSinc wrote: Thanks Anthony, Your share is a big reason for my decision. I did W95 on this List. I did W98 on this List, and 2K and XP.
