My girlfriend's laptop died so I removed the hard drive and put it in a USB caddy that I then plugged into my laptop. I can browse her disk and see all of her files, but when I try to copy them across to mine, some of them won't (and I get "The path is too deep" error, which is b*llocks seeing as similarly named files copy OK). Not a big problem that these odd files won't copy, but Windows then stops the whole copy process and I have to manually select each folder without the aforementioned files.
Is there a better utility to use for copying files across? If bloody USB worked on my Linux box I'd do it there, but for the moment I'm stuck with Windoze...
addendum: I'm having some success, I think, with "Roadkil's (sic) Unstoppable Copier" from
