A bit of trivia on XP.
Apparently XP creates a hidden $logfile which equates to 5 or so meg per gig of disk space.
To see the size of your hidden $logfile open command prompt and type " CHKDSK C: /L " without quotes.
My C drive is 5.5 gig with the $logfile taking up 30,175kb.
As I like to thin out XP wonder if it can be resized.
30GB-65536KB
pretty interesting though..
lol, Mines almost the same Aaron! Only by a few KBs behide...30GB-65536KB
pretty interesting though..
I'm thinking 65536KB must be the max size for all.
I've a 250Gb drive, and it reports 65536 also.

It can be re-sized by using chkdsk c: /L:<size> (size in bytes, I guess)
Not sure if you can reduce it tho - might be for increasing only.
Worth trying it anyway.

Thanks burtman, will look into it.
C:\>CHKDSK C: /LThe type of the file system is FAT32.Windows can set log file size on NTFS volumes only.
