Error Copying File or Folder

Body of error message: Cannot copy file: Cannot read from the source file or disk.
I got the above error box while trying to save a this project. It gives this error message but seems to save anyway because time/date on file is updated to current time/date. I don't know how but there is no project folder for this file. This is the first time I've ever seen this error. In the Cakewalk project folder there is the original Cakewalk Project File of it. Then the save I do gets listed as 2013-06-21-13-05-33-046 File. Would having a project folder stop the error message? How do I work in reverse a create a folder for an existing project? Should I create a blank project/file and drag and drop audio/midi from old in to the new blank and save? Sonar 8 btw

It could indicate a hard drive failure. You might want to take a look at the Windows event logs. To move a project to a folder, open the project and perform the "Save As" function. Make sure to check the "Copy all audio with project" and add the new folder name to the Project Path. If the new Project Path does not exist SONAR will popup a dialog asking if it should be created.

Thanks  Brother!
                         Worked as you said! I wasn't able to save as a .Bun. I got another error box reading Please delete events containing missing audio before attempting to save as a bundle. Maybe there is a small sliver of "silence" lurkin' about. But that's another post!
