If you are having the problem with your hard drive saying that the space used doesn't equal the space of all your folders then this is what you have to do. Right click on the hard drive with xp installed on it. Go to disk clean up. Click the more options tab. Click system restore clean up. Click Ok. You should gain a good amount of space back. It will not completely match up because your most recent system restore point is taking up space.
