Problem copying large amounts of files

Hi Everybody.

I have endured a problem and is frustrating me.
when trying to copy a large amount of files to a new desination, the 'busy cursor' key pops up for a little while and then the explorer drops and nothing happens.
If there are any ideas or surgestions please let me know.

Thanks
Slander

What's a large amount?

Perhaps you should try to copy them in parts

If you're talking < 10 GB I'd say try TeraCopy. Google to find the page and there's a beta link with the latest versions. Free for personal use.
