Today i used partition magic for my first time.

So i splited up my hdd into to parts 1:47gb 2:10gb.

But when partition magic was applying this partition this error came up:

Error! to few clusters!

press any key to reeboot. And after the reboot the computer worked well.

What is clusters? and what kind of problems can i get becasue of to few clusters?

And another problem:

When im copying files from C: to [Partition of C:]D: it took 45min to copy 6gb.

Thats very long, and something is wrong!

Please help!

Sorry for bad english

Partition Magic must have had an error while doing it.

The error you had could be:

1531 Too Few Clusters

(always jolt down error numbers, as they can identify problems much more accurately than just the message)

You could try performing a chkdsk on both volumes.

Please post more info:

1) if both partitions are primary or not

2) how they are formatted (NTFS /FAT21 /FAT16)

3) which version of Pertition Magic you used

4) every other related info you have

1) Disk C: is primary, and everytime i try to make a partition of C: i get the 1531: TO FEW CLUSTERS error.

My current cluster size is 4k.

2)C: is formated with ntfs

3) I use partition magic 8.0

4) Im not so good in this harddrive part.

So please help me!

Ok,

I gather you can boot into Operating System (which one is it, by the way, Windows XP?).

Open a command prompt, and type in it:

CHKDSK

[Enter]

See what it says, if it finds any error, try typing:

CHKDSK C: /F

[Enter]

it should try and fix the errors in the filesystem.

Try again with PM8 and post results.
