Vista - slow copy speed

so when i try to copy/cut a file to place in another detination, i get a max
speed of 10.2 Mps.... this is very daunting, as i have to move about 26 gigs
of information off of my slave drive to re-format it... at that rate it will
take over seven hours for it to comple, providing it stays at max speed...
but i don't have the time to do that, nor do i want to bog down my CPU with
it either.... so, is there a way to increase my file transfer rate?

or using Windows utilities directly? If the latter, you need to find an
appropriate Windows group to ask in. Here's how.

As you appear to be using a web interface, start here to find an appropriate
group:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx

Click the + beside your language. then scroll down to Windows. In Windows,
open the category for your version of Windows, then find a group there to
post in.

***Are you trying to do this from within a .NET application you're developing,neither.... it says it right in my post, i am copying/cutting from my slave
drive to my c:\ drive.... lol
