Transfer Data from internal Drive to External Drive Problems ? Help

Hi all,
I have recently upgraded my PC - Kept the box, powerplant, Disc reader/writer, and USB ports etc, Have kept my Oridginal 1TB as a Data Storage Hard Drive, Pre-Vista, but also have a 250G SSDrive with Win 7 for Operating Progs !

What Im trying to do is move all my Photos & astro photos from my Old 1TB drive to a 1TB external Drive - then format the old drive and use as storage, for said photos.

This is an attempt to recover all the space with-out the oridginal OP Vista System and all other crap on it - problem there is, The new W7 SSDrive PC doesnt recognise me as the administrator of the old drive, so I have to transfer everything I want - then formatt the old drive ?

Problem is the transferring of data (photos) is always jamming up due to ' not' recognizing a particular file - and there are plenty of them ??
Apparently there are some progs one can download to 'over-write' the execution of transfer But Ive been 'told' Lol, some are a bit technical for this duck
Is there something out there thats a bit simpler for the job I have at hand ?
Any insight there in ?
Thanx
