Right, I'm trying to resize a WinXP partition on a 60GB disk so I can put Ubuntu on the same disk. Using partition magic 8 but it tells me thats there are too many errors on the disk to perform the operation, specifically ;
error 1527 Bad update sequence number
This shows up about 5 or 6 times on the disk. The suggested fix; to run chkdsk/scandisk, doesn't make any difference, the errors remain. Only about 5GBs are used on the disk and I've been trying to resize to 15GB. I've also defragmented it several times and it's now in apparently pristine condition. But still no joy.
Was hoping someone could recommend a disk scan program capable of repairing these. Any recommendations?
