VHD File Size

Has anyone had this issue?

I am trying to comapact a VHD file which is a dynamically expanding disk and
it is a "Version 1" vhd disk. I have run a defragmenting program on the
virtual machine (XP Home) and have used the "Pre-compacting" iso and then
went to the console to compact it for the third step and I cannot get this
file below 22gigs...and I know there is not 22 gigs on this virtual machine.

Other vhd versions I have compacted successfully are a "Version 5.3"
vhd...why should it matter what version it is?

Any ideas much appreciated. Thank you.
