    I Keep getting 'Low Disk Volume' messages in Windows XP. The disk seemingly refuses to automatically expand even though this option is turned on.

    I shut down the the virtual machine and try to expand manually but I get this message:

    'Failed to resize the virtual hard disk.
    An internal error occured while resizing the disk.'

    Clicking on 'More Details' in the dialogue I get

    'Resizing failed. Unable to resize the last volume. The file system of this volume might be damaged or not supported.'

    I have tried cloning the volume and resizing the clone but the same error occurs. Following the suggestion from another thread C: => Options => Tools => Check Disk did not have the desired effect either.

    This is a new problem. The disk has happily expanded in the past and I have no problem compressing the disk or its clones.

    Suggestions will be much appreciated.
