One of my partitions is "stuck" at 10 gigs free. For some reason this will
not update itself and has been like this for almost a week now. The drive
actually has less than 1 gig free. I've tried moving some stuff elsewhere
and deleting some stuff but it always shows 10 gigs free still. Anyone know
how I can get this to work properly again?

Might try disk cleanup. I had an old Promise IDE controller that did
the same thing. The only way I could get it to update in Windows was
to run disk cleanup.

Yeah I have tried cleanup, defragging, even a system restore to before
it started happening and no good. Scanned for viruses, spyware, adware and
everything's clean. Did a hardware scan and the drive came back error free
and is working properly other than this. I even checked the drive in safe
mode and it still shows 10 gigs free. I should have included that in the
first post sry. Thx for responding tho. Any other ideas?

1. Make sure you have all desired data backed up first.
2. Run Chkdsk /f

What type of IDE controller is it? Do you have the lastest drivers for
it?
