Hi All,

My first post.

I recently used Paragon Partition Manager to create one new partition each on two separate partions 1.) 340 Gb to respectively 190 Gb. 150 Gb. 2.) 340 Gb to respectively 190 Gb. 150 Gb. This isn't my first time using this software.

I don't know what I did wrong, but the the total capacity do not add up to what it should. 1.) Free Space 190 Gb + Used Space 150 Gb will equal 150 Gb.

Each of the partition is Empty!

Please any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Respectfully,

bandbweb

PS

I'm running Vista Business. The external drives are WD.

Hi STHellRaiser! Thanks for the quick reply.

On both partition. The Used space is showing 150 Gb and the Free Space is showing 190, but the Total Space is only showing 190 Gb. And both partions are empy.

I have a new question. What is a person called, who isn't old, but had a temporary senior moment? When I checked the properties of each of the specific partions, I know, know and know I seen Gb, but it now has changed to Mb. I have to go now and hide. Sorry for taking up your time.
