Solve : Did i loose space when reformatting my pc?? |
|
Answer» I am not pc savvy so i am not sure if i am being paranoid or not. After many attempts to re install the OS I finally realized that i have to delete the partition. I did this. I also packed my pc with 4 gigs and it showed I had 3.25 gigs . Before the re install I had twice as many programs on my pc and more dish space. Now after the reformating I have less programs and have used more disk space. Is there any reason why this is happening? Sorry if I cant explain myself to well but i dont have the computer terminology that all of u here have. Here is a PIC of my space..there seems to be more blue space used then before i reformated I also packed my pc with 4 gigs and it showed I had 3.25 gigs . This is correct - a 32 bit OS (operating system like Windows XP) can only 'use' the amount of RAM that is shown.

Nonetheless, you certainly have plenty of free space (unused space) and don't need to worry. Best of luck! |
