I installed Windows 7 on a computer for my friend. We used a partition on 20 gigs. I installed 64 bit for him, and promised him that there would be 15 gigs left of space. When I was done, there were only 5 gigs left. How do I hide the disk, or make it look like there is more space than there really is? Thanks.

Why hide the disk or show more spece than reallly is??? You wanna fool a friend?

Why not just increase the size of partition?

Extending a partition is quite simple! (I will tell you if you wish) I don't gonna tell you how to fool him

??? Error message?? It should work.
Gparted is fine as well. Perform a "startup repair" afterwards
