External Hard Drive problem - need help

Hi,

I'm using a Western Digital 320GB External HD, and on Windows XP everything was working OK. Recently I switched back to Vista and I have this problem that probably everyone knows and has a simple solution, but it's really annoying.. Everything I copy onto my Hard Drive is being copied twice the time. First time it goes to 100% like it should be, then it just stops at 100% and I have to wait the exact same time I have already. It's like it's copying my files to some temporary folder and then copying it again to my desired folder. It's really bad because I usually copy files that are 4 or 5 GB large and I have to wait forever. I know, I'm dumb, but please reply, thanks.
