Bizarrely, I managed to transfer all my music over (about 5000 tunes) but one single music file wouldnt transfer and kept crashing my PC again. The file plays fine on my laptop though so cant be corrupt surely? It was the same with one picture file, I can open / edit the photo but when I transfer it, it crashes the PC, I deleted it and transfered th esame folder and all went smoothly. | |
