I recently formatted my computer. I started off with a 27
gid hd. It shows up now as a 25 gig? I had windows XP pro
installed .Now I am back to windows 98se.Where did the
other 2 gig go?How do I clean my hd of windows XP files?
There are no partitions that F disc sees. The F disk see's
a 26 gig. WIndows 98 says 27 gig and only 25 are available.

Windows takes up space on the hard drive! Windows XP takes ~2GB to do a
full install.
