5 Minutes to Copy 300MB File?

I have a external hard drive on my USB2 port.

I copied a 300MB file and it took over 5 minutes - plus another 2
minutes just "Calculating how long it will take".

Have I got something set up wrong or is this just Vista??? I hooked it
up to my XP Pro laptop to check it wasn't the external drive and it
did it in a few seconds.

I have read a few complaints about Vista slow copying but this is
crazy.

Go Away Imposter, Or Else I Will Send A 3rd Complaint 2
Just FYI.

Why would you send a complaint in? This is not a threating post. If you
just enjoy sending in complaints, you will be the one in trouble.

Why do you keep taling about an imposter? My e-mail address is different
than your e-mail address. It is similiar but it is different. There is
nothing wrong here.

So you think you own the Internet? Guess again. Why not send an e-mail to
the account and I will reply to prove that this is a legit account.

Incorrect. The Military owns the internet. The rest are just users and
renters.

I know my internet history. All the military bases and universities were
involved.
My works in communications. He knows. He was there at Maxwell and Gunter
where it got started.
