Drive Space Problem
Having a problem with the free space on Drive C being misrepresented. I
know before this problem happened I had at least 12-13GB of free space on the drive. Now My Computer is showing 4.8GB of free space. Funny thing is, using DiskPie, it shows the correct amount of used/free space. DiskPie shows 7.10GB used, roughly 12GB free. Any idea what the problem could be? I even showed hidden files/folders and nothing stands out as taking a ton of space on this partition. Stuff I download goes to a different partition on the hard drive(D. By the way I am using Windows XP Pro, 120GB Seagate Hard Drive, 20GB in C:, 100GB in D:. Thanks, Oscar |
