If I didn't have this stupid restore disk and had an actual retail version
of XP, I wouldn't be having this problem. It should be illegal to sell a
computer advertising it as coming with an OS, and then disabling parts of
the OS (like being able to do a clean install and partition your drive if
the OS allows this). Grrrrrr.

| Hi,
|
| I had the same error with Partion Magic 8.0 but using a Maxtor
| drive. I
| tried many time to resolve the errors then resorted to booting
| to the
| drive and using XP partion utility to adjust the drive as I
| needed. Once
| partioned I aborted the installation of XP. I lost a lot of
| data this
| way but luckily had backups.
|
| I have never had good luck with partion magic, ever,
|

| Has anyone had problems with this software and Western Digital
| drives?
| I
| keep getting an error 1513 whenever I try to resize or create
| a new
| partition from other partitions. I've emailed tech support,
| but thought
| maybe someone here has run into it. I did the chkdsk /f, but
| no go. I
| used the Western Digital drive diagnostics and there aren't
any
| problems.
| The drive isn't old and hasn't ever had any problems. Here's
| what the
| manual said and I followed the steps and am awaiting a reply.
|
| #1513 Bad attribute position in file record
| This error can often be resolved by running CHKDSK /F on the
| affected
| disk.
| For
| instructions on running CHKDSK, see PowerQuest Solution How to
| Run
| Microsoft CHKDSK from the Command Line.
| If running CHKDSK /F does not help, please send the following
| items to
