Do you get this problem only when copying, or does it occur during other
operations (such as opening a document or an image)? Does it occur every
time you try to copy, or only sometimes? If it's only sometimes, what is
different about when it occurs compared with when it doesn't? What process
are you using to do the copy (for instance, cut and paste or drag and drop)
and does the problem change if you try it a different way?
