Ah, didn't remember that part. So I currently see no good way to deal with this properly. The best thing I can think of right now is that if it starts and stops on a 2048 sector boundery (that's not also the normal (63) boundery?) and the fs is ntfs 3.1, we use 2048, else the normal value. Which looks so ugly. I wonder how vista does this itself. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
