After upgrading to SP2, XP Prof. , system reports only 1
Gb space total on the drive, with 246 Mb available.... yet
when you use chkdsk or other tools, it still has about 76
Gb space left. I am unable to run chkdsk /f to repair
this. What can be done to repair this problem. Every
program I try to load now which has any size reports
back "insufficient space" to load the program. We have
tried thru the Repair Consloe already and had no luck in
FIXING the problem, but it DID report ERRORS FOUND when it
ran the check.
It was suggested earlier to chk the partition size. That
is OK. Partition is and was set to full size of drive.
There is about 18 Gb of programs/files on the system now,
but, it now reports hard drive sizing error. It has 1 Gb
total space, and 264 Mb available space, regardless of
what I add to or take from the drive. You can NOT load
any programs over 264 Mb in size to the drive.
We have run complete diagnostics from the Dell utility
partition. Nothing. We have run AVG professional, latest
update, no virii. Have run SpyBot S&D, Spyblaster, and
XSoft spy removing utilities, Nothing found. Simply need
to have a way to run the chkdsk /f utility. THAT would
fix it if XP-SP2 would allow it to run!
