Harddrive Problem

MoneyMaker · 11-08-2006, 09:59 PM

All of a sudden a thing popped up saying that I was low on disk space, so I go into C: and it says my hd only has a capacity of 5gb, I have a 40gb harddrive though, what could be the problem?

The problem is it says I only have a 5gb harddrive, 35gigs just disappeared

Porn does happen to take up space rather quickly I understand.

Oh sorry I just figured because you are on this website that you didn't.

That's a common misconception.

Well, recorded any videos lately? I mean I recorded a 25 second uncompressed FRAPS video and it took up 3G's. If you don't have much on it, and it is partitioned, that could be the problem. Use KillDisk. Will null all data.

No retard, he doesn't have 5 gigs left, the hdd is showing as a 5 gig hdd, when in actuality it's 40 gigs.
