I have ran Scandisk, as well as norton disk doctor, both utilities say my F: drive is just fine and has no problems, but that doesnt make sense, I have about 47G Partition, 15G of it is free , but according to norton system information, my F: root and all it's subdirectories are using 5G. here is a couple screenshots, one from the defrag listing from Win2k (showing that I have 35% freespace left, but the graph shows much more than that) and one from Norton System works, showing what the root and all it's subdirectories take up, but with the extra invisible space taken up.
