Hey Art,

I had the same problem with DAT files not being able to be copied to my hard drive.

I am not positive.... but I think I had to change the extension of a file from scsi1hlp.hp to "scsi1hlp.vxd". I have an HP computer, so they probably renamed the extension to "HP" to disable it. If you do a "find"
on your PC for just the name (not extension), then change it to "vxd", that should do it, (you may need to reboot).

I just checked my machine, and my file is in the \windows\system\iosubsys
folder....

If it doesn't work.... change it back to what it was....

have u tried clean it up your cd? maybe its dirty or something. I always do that when i cannot copy my dat files
