  Hello Falcodriver,

  Thanks for the return of the answer!  I have included a link below with a similar question.  It could be the system restore or backups that use the extra space.  I hope this link helps!

  Hello ShamedMonkey,

  Thank you for your message.  The problem you are having is because of differences in formatting between PC and Mac.  You can, however, transfer your files between the two.  I will set out what must be done under and limitations of each.
  First, you will need to format the drive on your PC.  When you format the PC, you can format it in FAT32 or NTFS.
  (You mentioned that you do not see the drive in the computer) To format drive:
  Click 'Start' > right click on 'Computer' > select 'manage '.
  Click on "disk management".
  In the right pane, you should see your drive > you can then do a right click and 'format '.
  FAT32:
  This format will allow you to easily transfer files between the two.  This format becomes problematic when you transfer files more than 4 G.  There is a limit of 4 GB in FAT32, etc. of many movies are bigger than that and cannot be transferred using this format.
  NTFS
  This format has no size limitation, however, in its normal state it will be 'Read only' on Mac.  If you will not be able to transfer all the data itself.  While doing some research on the web, it seems that you can use a program called MacFuse on your Mac to change to NTFS files.  I have not confirmed this, but you can give it a try.  If this program works as planned, it would be the way to go.
  Please let us know if it did or did not solve your problem.

• ESXi 4.1 is almost complete used hard drive... but...

  ESXi 4.1 is almost complete used hard drive... but... in fact, it is not true.

  On my server ESXi, I see that I have only 200 M freestyle, when I opened the virtual machines that use this disk, it shows me that 53 G isn't free, 200 m.

  Can someone show me dirrection to solve this problem.

  Hello

  Regardless of the type of disc you use once in VMware ESX allocates space on the disk it will never resume. It will happen as two snacks of thin disc as thick disk. Only difference is that the thin disk allocation is on request and for thick it is pre configured.

  Now, when we see inside the guest, he will see some quantity using comments he will never see beyond that, because of virtualization. But the esx host is aware of what his size allocated to this disc.

  Please see KB http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1022242 for more information on the types of disk in VMware.

• Satellite M200 Vista shows that the HARD drive is full of 98%

  This problem showed about 2 months ago the system started running slowly and after a bit of research, I went to computer and found he showed that the HARD drive was full of 98%. Then I went and disabled the feature of shadow copy that reached about 3 Gig. After that, the performance was still hurt, so I decided to do a system restore. All reformatted once was good again until a week ago, and the same problem came back once again.

  This laptop is running Vista Home Premium SP1, 120 Gig drive HARD, Kaspersky Anti-virus, it has very limited connection to the Net, as it is mainly used to store and transfer music on an Ipod (20 GB of music).

  Any thoughts? Maybe a hardware failure?

  Thanks in advance.

  Craig.

  Hardware failure is very likely, since you are clearly able to access your hard disk without problem.
  Looks like you are using software that could be gradually fill the hard drive with data, such as a log file, it is difficult to say.
  With the erosion of the space, you might want to periodically check each folder in drive C (right click, properties) and see how it changes for each new session.

  Also clean the temporary files would help such as for:

  "c:\temp".
  "c:\windows\temp".
  "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp.
  erase internet files of Internet Explorer cache / temporary
  deactivation and reactivation then "System Restore" (do this only if you are satisfied with Vista is running stable)

• My hard drive is full

  My hard drive is full. Can I move files from the external hard drive on a hard disk without causing damage? Or do I have to add more space to my PC. How would (rookie) best install more space on mine. I would like to learn.
  Thank you
  BagggerMom

  Hello

  Yes, you can move the data files on an external hard drive. You can also add a new disk
  the computer - easier to a PC than a cell phone (even if the two can be made).

  If you want to move a program installed, not just the data, you must uninstall
  and then re-install the new disk.

  ---------------------------------------------------

  Run DiskCleanup - start - all programs - Accessories - System Tools - Disk Cleanup

  You may want to transfer some data, images or documents on removable media such
  as the USB keys, USB (my choice) or even CD/DVD drives (make multiple copies if
  the use of these).

  -----------------------------------------------------

  Info:

  System restore usually holds 15% of disk space and updates that are necessary for running computer
  consume even more. Backup - Options of recovery and even MS updates and those of HP, Dell
  or similar manufacturers use the space if your charging system. There are also overhead for the readers are not
  format to their maximum capacity.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

• I need to replace my hard drive in my Samsung laptop, I have windows 7

  I need to replace my hard drive in my Samsung laptop, I have windows 7. I want to reinstall it on the new hard drive running on linux but on install windows 7 on a virtual hard drive, how can I transfer the activation code

  In other words, you can't.

  Assuming that your edition of Windows 7 is the one that supports the transfer of a virtual machine (i.e. the upscale home and more)...

  You will need to do a clean install of the virtual machine, using the retail media and the key of the COA sticker.

  You may need to activate by phone.

  Note that Samsung have historically refused to provide any form of media except through a factory install. This means that it is almost impossible to install the original media for anything except the original disk, using the recovery partition.

• External hard drive is recognized but cannot see the content

  My external hard drive PX1393E - 2 32 is identified as removable media, if I connect it with my laptop. But there is no possibility of access. Size is shown as '0' and you can't see the content.

  I work with Windows Vista Home Premium SP 1. I tried to use the hard drive with a second computer (also Vista): same problem. If I connect the hard drive with a laptop that works with XP, I can see and use all my data.

  Drivers and the operating system are the last level.

  Does anyone know a solution?

  (I ask forgiveness because of my bad English.)

  Hello

  You can see the size of the HARD disk in disk management?

  Normally the external HARD drive should also work on Vista if it works properly on your XP computer.
  You use different cables? Maybe you should try other on Vista laptop.

  In addition, I would recommend formatting the HARD drive again. It's maybe something s wrong with the structure of the partition.
