Apparently the machine ran into a "code block" ...LOL and stopped copying at 23Gb of the D Drive and hung there all night till I called my tech in the A M and he told me to just close the command promt. I did so and had it done[file transfer/copying]in unde 4 hours by hand....a triumph of man over computer.....well partially...I forgot to save out a list of the installed PS plugins I use and now none of the actions I did save will work till I figure out what's missing. Still have to find where I stashed Bryce 5.5 install so I can try an actual full render without crashing...that should be a treat.. ...

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again
