Hi,
As I am running it from the sysrescuecd I have copied out the important
bits by hand and abbreviated some bits.
NTFS Volume version 3.0
volume/device size 4294MB
Space in use 2385MB (55.5%)
Last used at By Inode
$MFT 33 0
$MFTMirr 4220 1
Compressed 2898 9577
Multi-Record 4287 2694
Ordinary 4288 14944
Could resize to 4288MB (freeing 6MB)
Cheers,
Raphael
P.S. I have tried defragging over and over again in Win 2000 as someone
suggested. This is the result after the 5th defrag.
P.P.S. In Win 2000 it is clear from the defrag picture that some system
files are kept at the end of the ntfs partition and they are causing the
problem.
