Hello,
You can try to install Hotfix-932045.It should cure the problem.
This problem may occur if the following conditions are true: • The network
connection is slow or is prone to errors. For example, the network connection
uses long-distance, slow-wired links or modems. Or, the network connection
uses a wireless 802.11 or Bluetooth connection, and the network signal is
weak. For example, the wireless network signal may be weak because of the
distance from the access point or because of interference. The problem may
also be affected by network traffic, by network retries, by packet losses, or
by other factors that affect reliability of the connection.
• The file that is being transferred is large. For example, the possibility
of experiencing this problem is proportional to the size of the file that is
being copied. For example, you may experience the problem when the file is
approximately 100 megabytes (MB) or larger on an 802.11b 11 Mbps wireless
network.
CAUSE
========
This problem occurs because, in some scenarios, Windows Vista may not retry
the connection. Instead, the connection is dropped. When this problem occurs,
the file transfer is not successful.

Maybe the OS file system is the culprit.

Erintech,
Did you ever find a solution to this? I've been having the problem for
quite some time and my situation seems very close to yours.
Thanks,

You want to try disabling network auto tuning. Or this search result may
help.

Erintech,
I am have the same problem when coping a large file. Have you ever found a
solution?
I have Vitsa Ultimate, Dell XP M1530. The problem occurs on both wireless
and wired connection to a HP NAS.
Thanks,
