hi there

I have new pc running XP SP2. I have Seagate baracuda 250GB 8MB cache there, divided into two partitions. The first one 100GB with XP and all the stuff instaled and the second one 150GB which is still empty. Windows shows the capacity of first partition as 97,6GB (that is ok), but the second partition is only 135GB (and used capacity is 651MB, although it's 'empty'). I'm not sure, but I think 15GB is too much. 3 or 4GB would be fine, but 15? SisSandra says the capacity of the disc is 233GB. So I'm missing 17GB total.

Thank you for any explanation or advice!
