I cannot transfer directly from the Windows hard drive since the "drive" that HFVExplorer creates is actually a file. The only way to get anything onto that drive from within Windows is to use HFVExplorer. However, it tries to be helpful and checks the validity of the files. I do not need it or want it to do that and there doesn't seem to be any way around it.

You can.

If you don't have the same GUI just add or edit the prefs file to read:

extdrives CDE

(where CDE etc are the drive letters you want to be accessible inside the emulated mac)

The messy thing with this method is that it writes folders to the host drives to store resource forks. That's why I prefer to use HFVExplorer with SheepShaver.
