i have a dual install 98 and on a different partition XP.
now it was working fine and dandy. but now my d: (xp)says it is low on disk space!!! well i added up all my programs and documents and it says i should have 3 gigs free. but instead i show 370 mb free!!!! and my C: (98) says it only has 1.39 gb free!!! help me please please tell me what is going on.
Much thanks in advance,
