I have a problem with explorer reporting the wrong disk space. I have tried scandisk,scanreg/fix,defrag, and also deleted all temp. internet files all with no results. I have a 4.59gig hd with only 120mb free. In reality it's only half full. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Did you run scandisk in dos also as this  
Artical says is the temporary fix? Restart in MS-DOS-- type scandisk at the prompt.
Type win when it finishes.

Yes I ran scandisk in dos, it acknowledges an error reporting free space error and says fixed, but when checking c: drive properties still getting low drive space report. No luck downloading program. Have heard that explorer somtimes reports false drive space over 4gig. Checked for bugs using norton, none found. Thanks for the reply Trey, still working on problem.
