Good Day:

I bought my computer last week from a computer store and the owner
paritionrd XP into C:\ and D:\ drives.

He told me that the HD had 160GB but when I went into C:\ properties, it
shows 69.3GB and D:\ properties shows 58.5GB, totalling only 127.80GB,
leaving a difference of 32.8GB.

Which is the correct amount of hard disk space-160GB or 127.80GB?


160 billion bytes.You need two things to support a drive that large, and are
apparently missing at least one of them.:

1. A motherboard with a BIOS and controller that supports 48-bit LBA (or
alternatively, an add-in controller card that does).

2. At least SP1 of Windows XP.
