I have got problem with the my laptop (Dell Latitude D600) HD's partition (I am not sure if it is with partition, but I guess), I have experienced similar(not same)problem long time ago for more that one time with my desktop PC(not the laptop), especially when I installed more than one operating system on the same HD, but I had no clue what was going on, I used to re-partition or format the HD.
For instance the problem that I had experienced before, when I was trying to use Partition Magic (V8) to verify the there was no error on a specific partition, it was always telling me that there was error (As far as I remember it was error #119 but not sure, because I have not recorded it at that time). I have been told that there was bug in PM, do not rely on it
Today when I tried to defragment volume C (windows partition NTFS ) for my laptop(which has 3 OS on it Windows 2000 server , Linux, Solaris V10), I faced this error message:
"The volume WIN2000 (C : ) has 16 KB per cluster. Disk Defragmenter cannot defragment NTFS drives with more than 4 KB per cluster".
1- Are these type of errors because I have more than one OSs on the same HD ?
2- Can I repair my current error ? How ?
3- What should I use to verify that there is no error on the all partitions on the HD ?
