45898 2002-04-27 10:15:00 Hi,

I have a computer running XP Professional, with two NTFS partitions.

I'm trying to convert them both back to FAT 3. However when I try to do it, I get a message saying - 'At least one file has multiple versions. If you continue the conversion only the newest file on each version will be retained - Are you sure you want to continue the conversion and lose this information'


I then click ok and I get Error 1681 - Data is compressed or sparse - File 52 (128) - Click ok to cancel conversion.

How can I convert it or get rid of these problems?

Thanks
Ashley
