BleepingComputer.com: XP to Ubuntu file transfer?

So, me and a buddy of mine installed Ubuntu on our PC's.

Thank you so much!
We tried to drag and drop but we would always run into files that wouldnt completely copy over and be like 0-250 bytes. but after selecting them 1 by 1 they copied just fine
