Hello,<br>
<br>
This is a borderline Linux / Vista issue so feel free to ignore if<br>
it's off topic.<br>
<br>
My laptop duel boots Ubuntu & Vista and has a shared partition that<br>
they can both access (I can't remember if it's NTFS or FAT32, probably<br>
NTFS though.) Several months ago Vista stopped being able to read the<br>
partition - it can see it but complains that it's not accessible. I<br>
don't know what caused this, but the data seems fine because I can<br>
access it all as normal from the Ubuntu installation.<br>
<br>
So an obvious fix it to backup and repartition, but it's quite a large<br>
partition so I wonder if anyone knows a way to repair it so that Vista<br>
doesn't puke?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
