hey guys!!!

i have a problem with my windows Xp. the partition in which xp is installed is of 10.1 gb. now R-clicking the partition(D Drive of mine- the win xp drive) shows a used space of 9.5 gb. but at the same time whn i enter D Drive and select all folders n file and find out used space it comes out to be 7 gb. now the problem becomes tht windows gives low disk space warning even whn i have the 2.5 gb empty space which i some how miss managed my the OS. wht do i do and wht the problem may be ....
i think tis is a memory management problem with win xp or someting like tht... coz tis has happened for the 2nd time i reinstalled(reformatted) my PC(the HDD).

Open MyCompter/Tools/FolderOptions/view, make sure you are viewing all folders/files and also system/hidden files/folders. then go back and highlight everything on your drive & see how big it is... (your page file among other system stuff were probably not being reported because your veiw settings didn't allow it) :)
