Default SD to SD transfer question.

Alright here’s the deal. I’m not a technical person so anything more than a simple task on a PC is near impossible for me to comprehend. So this is my problem, I bought a 2GB SD card to replace my now full 1GB SD card (thank you Wii Ware). I figured the easiest way to transfer the information from one card to another would be to copy the information onto my PC , then dragging the information into the new card. I tried this, and it didn’t work. For some reason I get an error and only around 12 of my 100+ VC games gets transferred properly (they were the earliest VC releases oddly enough) none of my save data copied either.
I don’t want to use the Wii to transfer the information because it will probably take days. So does anyone have a suggestion or a solution (preferred) to my dilemma? I’m using Vista if that helps.

Copy it into your Documents Folder, that's what I do.

And could you please state the complete error message?

I thought 1gb is pleanty & 2GB is ought to be enough for anyone .

I did a rought calculation a 2 GB card is 6 time more than what is allowed storage of game & saves on the Wii as well all know that would be less than 300MB .
