Hello all

Please can someone help me.
I have a 120GB Hard Drive which is partitioned into 3
parts.

2 x 55GB
1 x 10GB

On the main C:\ which has 55GB, i have 12GB of data and
therefore, until recently, have had 43GB of free space.
However, it now says i have only 20GB of free space left
and has somehow found 23GB of extra data.

This data shows up on all programs, but cannot be found
by any. I have done disk cleanup, defrag, the lot. But it
cant find it anywhere.

Please can you help me cos its annoying me intensly!

Thanks

Ed

Here's a fun little freeware program that shows your drive usage graphically
file by file. Good for figuring out which files are taking up how much
space.
