Hmm, I've not used mount points much. Do you have anything else on the e:\ drive? How about using Disk Manager to remove the e:\ drive and mount it directly as D:\SVN\BigFolder (The "Mount in the following empty NTFS folder" option)? Then you should be able to do the checkout properly... Note: I cannot try this at the moment so YMMV! ~ mark c
