I'm using the build 3186 and my Windows(Vista) image is created from, I think, RC1 (I forgot what the build number was). The image size is about 15GB including preference files. My external HD has 2 partitions; they are FAT and HFS+. I was trying to copy this image into the HFS+ area, which is 80GB free, but I can't finish copy them. When I copy by the drag&drop on the Finder, it will stop when it copied 126MB of data. Then when I try to clone the image from the Parallels Desktop, it just freezes. Finally, I tried to copy by the cp, but it also froze when it copies image file. Is there any work around? Or should I just reinstall the Windows on my external HD?? Thank you,
