    Hello,

    I have a new WD 1TB External Harddrive. About 750gb of it is being used at the moment. A few days ago I had a file larger then 4gb which I could not store on that drive and then later found out that I needed to convert it into NTFS.

    I opened Partition Manager and selected the convert file system to get it into NTFS. It said it found some errors , so I did a chkdisk on it on windows and had both options to scan and fix any errors automatically checked.

    I ran another test, I ended up having to restart the comp. When it was scanning and getting ready to convert it, I got this error:

    Invalid Partition Data:
    Partition control blocks information incompatible.

    My keyboard and mouse froze, it did not let me hit ok after I got that error message so I ended up having to do a force shut down.

    I have Windows XP Pro with the latest drivers and clean of spyware/adware with Norton Security 2010 and Zone Alarm.

    Can anyone tell me what my issue could be?

    Here are my log files:

    There's something with the geometry of the partition. I would run chkdsk at least a couple of times. From Start > run > "cmd" > "chkdsk /r X:" (X letter being your partition letter)

    It will take about an hour for that size hard drive.

    If you still receive the same error, I would try running the Linux/Dos CD and performing the conversion there.

    Finally, open a ticket with the support team and please attach your subact.log file found at C:\Windows\Program Files\Partition Manager\program\stubact.log

    Try running TestDisk to check for errors/recover.

    Hi Tommy,

    I had chkdsk running last night at around 12am and woke up this morning at around 7 to see it still running. It finally completed and here are my results:

    http://img.red-demon.com/images/ssiii.jpg

    No issues found. I received the same result when I ran chkdsk from the GUI interface but did not take as long as DOS Chkdsk did.

    Howard, I will give test disk a try right now.

    Edit*

    Howard, is there a particular option in testdisk to actually check for errors on the disk? I did not see one offhand in any of the options. Here is the testdsk log from everything that I did run from it:

    I've reviewed it again and did not find anything to actually analyze the actual disk. The only thing that I did find was aiding in the repairing of boot sectors if the disk drive wasn't booting up properly. My external harddrive boots up properly, it has data in it, and i have ran chkdsk on it 3 times now. I do not need to recover any data since I have not lost any information. This program is not very useful for me but thank you very much for suggesting it.

    I still cannot convert my file system :-(.

    Well, this morning I spent about an hour cleaning up any mess and reorganizing my external harddrive files. I removed about 42mb's of data out of 732gb's of data. I ran another check disk afterwards and it took about 5 hours to get this done compared to the last time where it only took 1 hour. So I figured ok maybe it finally caught the error and alas it did. I ran partition magic again to run the file system, it scanned the drive without any errors and currently in the process of moving all the files and directory. Looks like this might take more then a day, it's going at 3% every hour :-(.

    Try running a good defrag program such as Perfect Disk.
    You nay have a badly fragmented partition.

    Howard thanks, it looks like its working now. It's at 27% though lol, it might take a whole nother day for partition magic to complete the fat 32 to ntfs conversion since it has about 730gb of data in it.

    I thought that you were using Paragon Partition Manager, not Partition Magic?
