just after instalation of Windows Xp - disk size : 238M, used : 11

August 30, 2008

Yesterday, I installed Windows Xp and in a "partition dialog" in setup it

has been displayed : C:\ size(238M)/used(115M).

After that, the installation format my disk, but only in not used space

(size - used). So after installation, on absolutely empty computer (only the

programs and drivers installed with Windows) in the Properties of C: there

are : used space 115M, Capacity 238M. What can I do?

Please review your figures. There is no way to install WinXP on a 238 MByte

partition. You need at least 4 GBytes (= 4000 MBytes). The recommended size

for a WinXP partition is 10 . . 15 GBytes or more, depending on where you

wish to store your data files.
