I have been trying to digitize family photo albums over the past few months. The number is over 600 and growing. Various methods have been use to include scanner and photographing album photos. I also have a CD of jpg files that a local shop created for me several years ago. The jpg files were made by scanning negatives then doing minimal photo editing in Photoshop before burning them to a CD. These are the files that are giving me trouble.

The can be viewed on my monitor by every method I have tried including Ifranview, PhotoImpact, and the M$ image viewer. I can copy these files to HD and even modify them when necessary. I cannot then copy them to flash memory. It is my desire to have all photos on a SD memory card for use in a digital photo frame.

I am beginning to think that M$ has included some DRM type crap in a recent update that is preventing the copy function.

Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, have you found a way around it?
