reinstalled it multiple times, tried Intels drivers, MS drivers... copying big folders, multiple gigs it just dies. Great job MS, you suck. These are from the same HD, different partitions. LMAO 8fail!
The copy completed without incident. The problem is on your end pal...
Is your installation up to date? They do release updates for Windows 8. I remember having file transfer issues when I first started using the release preview, but after the first round of updates, I never had a problem. I'm my third build and I can move gigabytes of data around using SATA, eSATA, USB and the network without a problem.
all of the computers I've regularly used win 8 on have been machines with something other than an Intel chipset. I'm curious if I'll hit this snag at work. Nothing but Intel there.yea I had the same issue. I'm not moving across the network, these are from one HD or raid partition to the other even. the only thing in common is that all 5 PCs have Intel chipsets. I've tried with the latest intel RST drivers and MS drivers though. I just reinstalled Windows 7 back on them and having no issues. Clearly its something with Windows 8.
Screw Microsoft for not making these preview versions of Windows work on all hardware platforms, even though the drivers aren't available for all devices yet.
Well, like I said, 15 TB of data moved through Windows 8 without a hitch here. It's obviously perfectly capable of handling large file transfers.Not really, Windows 7 runs fine on all of them, its a Windows 8 problem that is easily solved. DONT FUCKING USE WINDOWS 8. End of story, problem fixed.
Oh well.... welcome to Win8. If I find a fix I'll post it, otherwise we'll all be troubleshooting this one together.
I encountered that problem as well, however when I was in task manager->resource monitor, the disks were still reading/writing, as far as I can tell it's just an explorer display bug, leave it running and it should finish at the usual speed.
+ 1If all else fails, I recommend TeraCopy.
I'm trying to move like 100+GB, but even smaller ~40GB ish copies have hung. Tera copy works without fail. What version of Win8 are you guys using? Release preview?
RTM is full of bugs, its a lot worse than RP - winleaked.info

Have you checked in Task Manager's Resource Monitor to verify the disks are not reading/writing? I'm using the RP btw, and like I said I've seen explorer say 0 bytes/sec when Resource Monitor showed that the copy was going fine. What other bugs are you seeing in the RTM, out of curiosity?
Yea, same thing I was seeing. Tera-copy works so it's gotta but just a GUI bug. Reminds me of the Vista issue where it would get stuck calculating forever.
A lot of things just weren't working for folks. DPC latency is much better than CP or RP. there is a new leak of enterprise today. previous was the n version.
Read the first post. He said it was RTM, not the Release/Consumer/Developer Preview.
On that note, I'm curious as to how the OP obtained the RTM version of Windows 8 so early.
Well considering it's not the 15th he didn't get it off technet and I highly doubt he's a MS employee so I think it's fairly safe to say he pirated it.
I'm sorry your very obviously pirated RTM copy isnt working for you. None of us have no issues like that, so it is very clearly an isolated incident.
like CrimsonKnight13 suggested, try another copy program. Failing that, there's always plenty of traffic that needs playing in...
....................
So you have yet to admit your using a pirated RTM release yet it is obvious, probably the patches you used to make it activated, or you downloaded a fake....
why not download the RP instead.....
I don't even understand why this thread is still open, seems to me it would fall under the sticky at the top of the forum.
