Right so My 120G drive is showing only 78G's free.. and there's only 7G's of information on there.. how can this be? maybe this drive is going bad also :mad: unless there's a massive amount of information in some hidden directories on that drive?... any ideas =)
 
"The Bitmap: RELOADED..."

I know EXACTLY what happened. The free space that you had got lost in the hard drive.

Use Disk Defragmenter in the system tools menu to free that up... :cool:
 
erm.. yea i thought maybe that's what had happened.. because i had removed and reinstalled so much crap.. but that didn't work

*edit* I'll see if i can find a program to format the hard drive.. because I don't want to install windows on it.. and we'll see if that works.
 
ok just to let anyone who cares know.. I used a program called "East-Tec FormatSecure" and there's many options from this program that allows you to do different types of formats. Worked great and all of my space is back, w00t
 
i got it from download.com

There were a couple to choose from, but one wanted me to have a 98 bootup disk, since i don't use a floppy drive I had to find something else, so I got that.. but yea it's just sitting there formatting the drive, but initially I saw that I had all the space back, so I'm syked =)
