I have a Windows XP disk image. The image size if 50+GB and the actual disk usage in the image is 18GB only. Is there a easier way to compress the image.

I tried to shrink the image using vmware tools, but it always complains of insufficient space in host OS (I have 10GB free). I tried using the Windows defrag utility in the guest OS, but it increased the disk usage rather than reducing it. :(


Any suggestions.
