I have been unsuccessful in using DVD shrink to date. I get an error message before the back up is complete. I was trying to copy Dogma.
Error message is as follows: DVD Shrink encountered and error and can not continue. Failed to write File VTS_07_1.V0B. There is not enough space on the disk.
I started out 13mb free on my hard disk when I started, and had 9mb still free after the error message. Also, when I look on the hard disk, I find the file association type as Easy CD Creator Image file. Any ideas on what the problem is?
Convert your FAT 32 drives to NTFS. NTFS does not have a 4GB file size limit like FAT 32 does.
Example:
Click Start - Run and type.
Convert C: /FS:NTFS
Before you make the conversion to NTFS.
It is a good idea to both defragment and error check fixing both file system errors and recovery of bad sectors.
Right click on your drive and select Properties and these options are on the Tools tab.
Wags, if you had been checking threads as we recommend Newbies to do, you would have found out that we are referring to your PC?s file system - FAT32 (if you have it) needs to be converted to an NTFS file system. It?s easy and safe to do -
hi pete,
honestly i did go through the threads but i did not know what was going on with my system to pin point what to look for. in hindsight i should have checked the fat32...also i made a mistake with stating mb, i was really meaning giga....so i am positive i have the room! thanks everyone for the help!
