This is the error from the event log. ...A failure was encountered
while retrieving the volume properties. Error code:

Please not the volume 1 is my C drive but some how its not showing up
correctly. I am not able to shrink the volume 1. Can some please help
in debugging this.

I tried using Computer Management but it also gives some error.
