I'm having trouble repartitioning a drive with a single FAT32 partition with FIPS. I defragged, did a clean boot, and ran it, but it gives an error that there are hidden or read-only files at the end of the partition. I tried disabling the swap file (which I probably should have done anyway.) That didn't help. Then I did "dir c:\ /s /a:h" to find all the hidden files and change them. That took forever and still didn't work. I don't want to shell out the money for Partition Magic. Does anyone have any suggestions?
