Description
I've been trying to copy long list of files within Windows 98 and I get an error. I'm trying to transfer the files from an Abe's Oddysee GOG disc to the OS but I get an error towards the end of the transfer. Similarly, I get this error when trying to copy files on a Windows 2000 or XP install!
Any ideas?

Research direction
Reproduce the reported file-copy failure in emulated Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows XP using the long transfer described and the linked screenshot as context. Trace where the copy fails near the end of a large transfer, then verify that the same files can be copied successfully without the reported error.
