Host? Version? Filesystem on Host?

Edit>> are you saying that by setting the virtual disk to 20GB it's too big and should only be set too 4GB if so how do I go back and change this.
Thanks

Re: Win7 Instsll error
Make a backup of anything important.
In the host open a command prompt.
start-> run -> cmd
in that run
convert c: /fs:ntfs
wait a long time
reboot
