| | Missing 50GB of Disk Space Hi, when I go to My Computer, it says that the C: drive is only 122GB. When I right click on the my computer shortcut and click on manage, the disk analyser thing says the C: drive is 170GB (roughly). That's a lot of unused space on a 250GB hard drive. I just recently resized the C: partition from 122GB to 170GB to add a game or two to WIndows using a Linux program that never failed me before, Gparted. How can I fix this??? |

| | We would have a lot more options in troubleshooting this, if it wasn't the drive the OS is actually on. Have you run a disk check on the drive since making the change? Disk Check |

| | I suggest you post a Disk Management screen shot of the HDD using the snipping tool. |

| | This hard drive is about 3yrs old. Here's the picture you requested. Note that the other smaller partitions are for Ubuntu 11.04 and 10.10. |

| | I can't really make sense of this screen shot. Disk 0 is a 320GB drive with 5 primary partitions (???). A standard MBR only supports 4. Only C: has a drive letter (the 100MB system reserved normally doesn't have a letter assigned). Windows disk management can occasionally get it wrong. You may want to look at the equivalent disk management picture with Partition Wizard. Someone else may be able to give you more assistance. |
