I can see why you are having problems.
The first thing is that volumes C and D do not have the normal 4 kb
cluster size. This can occur in certain situations if they are
converted from FAT32 to NTFS without taking precautions. See the link
which follows: http://www.aumha.org/win5/a/ntfscvt.htm
The Default Cluster Size for the NTFS and FAT File Systems
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314878/en-us
Other than reformatting I do not know how to correct the error. Of
course with your C volume that involves reinstalling Windows XP and
all that entails...
I disagree! I have used NTFS 512kb clusters before and I see nothing
wrong with them. Also Partition Magic can change the cluster sizes on
the fly. Although *not* always successfully I might add.

Are you sure you mean 512KB, and not 512 byte? I think you mean 512
byte.
