my 2003 server has a harddrive with two partitions (c & d). c drive is
12gb
and d drive is 120gb. when i display the properties of c i see capacity
12gb, free space 18gb? used space is represented by nonsense characters.

has anyone seen this before? should i be concerned?

is this something to do with partition extension?

I would be extremely concerned. What you report sounds
like a bad case of file system corruption. Save everything
you can, then run chkdsk /f /r and prepare yourself for an
installation that won't start.
