Xp show more space than HD size

[dejay97]

Hi,

I ran into an odd situation, where Xp diskmanager reports 200Gb storage than actually available.

I have 2 unused partitions, where in going to install Kubuntu (the first 46,57GB and the 2,26GB)

All the actual partitions are the named partitions (3x 48,83 and 1x 102,77)

However, there are 2 partitions showing as:

48,83 available space.
151,61 not allocated.

These partitions do not exist, as its well beyond the actual HD size.

I have been reinstalling Xp on C: a few times, while leaving the remaining disk intact. Maybe that has something to do with the problem.

Solved.

I ran TestDisk and corrected the problem.

Seems there was some messed up entries. Everything is fine now.
