    I would take a look at the DSCF 132.avi file in your Larry's Party Folder. Perhaps the file is corrupt.

    Can you copy all the other folders, except Larrys Party?

    Do you have enough space on the hard drive, both the one you are copying from and the one you are copying too?

    No, Every folder I try to copy some photo out of every folder shows the same message. I have deleted some photo's which I thought were causing the problem, but, another one shows up. The hardrive is brand new. Nothing on it at all.
    It works fine on my laptop so it is just the PC which is having problems.

    What about the hard drive you are copying it from, the PC, is that hard drive full?

    Well if it is a pretty small bit, like only a few hundred MB, then this could be the problem. An indication of this would be if it let you copy one file at a time, without problem, but fails when you try to copy multiple files.

    You could also try copying it from the command prompt:

    [PHP]open a command prompt and type:
    xcopy {source drive} {destination drive} /E /V /C /H /O /Y

    example: xcopy e: f:\ /E /V /C /H /O /Y[/PHP]

    via (forums.techguy.org/6529344-post5.html)

    It might also be that Windows is not recognizing the hard drive properly, so you could try to copy a file from the Iomega to your Desktop. If that doesn't work, try stopping the Iomega, plugging it into a new port, and restarting your computer
