Finding out the size of the harddisk

[Guest serenejean]

I want to help someone sell their computer with XP O/S but can't find

the size of the harddisk to include in the ad.

We've been to My Computer > C: Drive > Properties but it states there

is zero 'Used space' and zero 'Free Space'.

The computer is working fine in other regards.

Any ideas what to do now?

Belarc advisor.

 

You can google for it. It dumps a great amount of data and you can have

the user send you the report via email. Easy to install and run.

R-click My Computer, Manage, Storage, Disk management.

C: is just a partition. It doesn't represent the HD size if you have

multiple partitions on a HD. Easiest way is to get into BIOS (if you know

how to get there).
