Hi Gasolene, if you tell me everything about your setup I may be able to see what the problem is. What hard drives do you have and how they are...

Which build of Vista is it?
Don’t know about Win9x but 2K/XP it’s HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices Win98 does not permanently store drive letter assignments as...
I’ll stand corrected on that one then Charles. Admittedly I did just assume the System Restore folder behaved in the same way as the others. Never...
Three reasons: Hidden files in the root of the drive, Reserved space, Cluster slack. The pagefile and hibernation file (if you have one)...
