Heeelp! Bootcamp issues!!!

Alright.. for two days, I've been trying to figure out what to do about this problem.. and I think I've come to a halt.

Some time ago, I had a bootcamp partition which I eventually ended up removing again with the bootcamp assistant.

Now I want to create the bootcamp partition again, and when I start up the assistant, there is a 5gb leftover partition of the old bootcamp it seems. I just can't resize it... I've tried anything as low as resizing it to 10gb to 100gb... both fails.

I have more than 200gb free space.
I have just run a full defrag with iDefrag
I've tried to do fileoptimization with techtool pro v5
I tried using camptune (which only works if you already have a working bootcamp partition, which I dont.

The result I seem to get every time is that I cannot create the partition because some files cannot be moved, and then a reference to error code -1407.

Is there anyone at all that knows what to do about this.

I tried searching for software that allowed me to create a bootable disc so I could potentially resize it while it was unmounted, but I havent been able to find any that supports HFS+ with journaling....

I've also tried to disable journaling btw... that didn't help either.


Anyone here have any good ideas?


Best regards,

Yeah... I only have one external disk though, and thats where my timemachine backup is on... so that's not really a viable solution

Any other ideas?
