I am having a problem with large files becoming corrupt.

I use winXP and have my OS and app's installed on a 20GB NTFS disk. I also have 2 other HDD both with FAT32 where i store all my drivers and d/l.

So when i reinstall my OS i can put verything back nice and quick.

Works great EXCEPT that when i copy large files e.g 15 MB .rar's 30 MB .zip's etc they often (usuallY) become corrupt.

I have formatted these drives regularly and my current install of winXP is only 4 days old.

Can any1 account for this behaviour?

Cheers,

Vol
