TOPIC




    Even though there is plenty of room, suddenly my hard drive says I have no
    space left on the disk. There are no viruses, and rebuilding the Desktop
    doesn't help.

    Norton Utilities tells me that:

    - It can't read BTREE header

    - The Volume bit map is incorrect

    - The Volume info blocks have errors


DISCUSSION


    You're experiencing Volume BTREE Structure Corruption. When this happens,
    the hard drive needs to be reformatted. It is possible for software to
    bomb or crash hard enough to cause format structure damage to the hard
    drive. This is one of the main reasons we strongly suggest frequent
    backups.
