Hi, Lestat:

First of all, you must make sure that your HDD has enough space for your VCD's files. And then I wonder what OS you're using.

1.If you're using MS Windows... You can copy VCD's MPEG file from a folder named "MPEGAV". The the names of the *.dat files under that folder may be Music**.dat or AVSEQU**.dat. I think there's no problem copying those files to your HDD.

2.If you're using Mac OS... I don't know how to copy those files directly by draging the files. But I tried "Vitual PC" and it worked. You can copy the files under Vitual PC's MS Windows to a shared folder located in your Mac OS's HDD.

Further questions, please contact with me agian (if you'd like to do so).

See you!

You should use winimage, winoncd or similor to create an ISO image of your VCD on HDD if you plan to have a copy. Also you can copy only the AV*.dat.
