Hi, I have installed windows XP pro. When i check the space available on the drive, 1 Go is missing. after the installation more than 2 go are used. and when i check the size of all the file it is less than 1 Go. I started xp in console mode and i typed dir and this time the result was the normal size. if someone has any idea of what is happening it would be nice. I have installed again XP but the problem was still there Thanks in advance John

Hi i understand know. The first time i thought it could be because of the restore system and i made change to this. It is probably the hibernation because i have 640 mo of ram. i am going to check this. What is strange is that i asked some friends and they dit not notice a so big space used by xp. I have more than 1 Go used for that (i understand better now with hibernation) For the hibernation is there a setting or only a file to delete Anyway thank you for the info, i fell better now Mathieu
