My Samsung DVD SD-604 can't copy a file from a CD. The file is 316 MB big. First I thought it was corrupted, but other CD-ROMs and DVDs seem to be able to copy it without a flaw. My drive just stops after copying about 3/4 way through, and stays like that for a couple secs, and then the whole process crashes with an error message (error in I/O or something). Virtual memory might be a problem, so I've decided to increase it up to 800 MB, but still no effect. I tried to copy another file (360 MB) and it worked. I've encountered a similar problemt with some other files, which I wasn't able to copy down from different CDs either. Any suggestions?
