Missing GB's

Hi, I have 25 supposedly gigabytes on my laptop but three of them were used by the manufactorer, understandable.. But I redone my laptop a few months ago and when I redid it I was missing 8GB's and still am.. I never messed with it becuase I didn't have the time but now its bugging me cuz I need the space..

I'm thinking the registry needs to be cleaned or theres some hidden files or something? I show hidden folders and I calculate my C: Drive and it only comes up to 17+GB's (I know I need to clean it off but don't have the time) where is the other 8?

Can someone tell me what may be wrong? If you need more details I will try to explain better but this basicly tells you everything...

Thanks for the help!
