Problem after having cloned drive. (showing incorrect space on drive)
First off PC specs:
AMD Phenom II x4 processor - 3.4 Ghz
8GB DDR3 RAM
Nvidia N460 GTX GFX card
240GB SanDisk SSD
Windows 7 64 bit
So here is the problem. I had a Western Digital 300 GB SATA drive that was starting to quit on me. So using an Ubuntu live CD I cloned the 300 gig drive onto the 240 gig drive (I only had used approx. 120 GB on the old drive so had LOTS of free space). It seemed to clone fine, and after removing the old drive the computer booted up fine (no errors, running super fast). Windows 7 also recognizes it as a solid state drive (it doesn't show up in the defrag list). However, I just noticed that it's showing the space on the drive as incorrect. It shows up as 126GB free of 297 GB (so pretty much the same size as the old drive). the motherboard's bios shows it correctly, and my linux CD shows it correct as well.
Any way I can fix this in windows without a reinstall of the OS?
