memory is 2MB, the total free disk space required will be
around 34MB. If the total free disk space is less than this,
you have to free up space on the hard disk.
❑
The hard disk has enough free space, but this free space
exists as small fragments.
The free disk space that PHDISK requires needs to be
contiguous. To solve this problem, use tools such as Disk
Defragmenter (Windows) to compact these free disk
spaces. Then run PHDISK again to create the file.
❑
Disk compression utilities are used.
PHDISK can work with most compression software.
However, PHDISK can only create the space on a host
drive. A host drive stores original file information and
cannot be compressed. The free space on the host drive is
usually very small, so the compression software needs to be
run again to enlarge the size of the host (uncompressed)
drive for PHDISK.
For more information, see “PHDISK” on page 70.
