Hi everyone

I just cloned my main hard drive (Quantum 20Gb) to a bigger one (WD 200Gb). I used Data Life gaurd which worked great (everything working like a charm) But when I went to look at the pie to show space used and free it shows half the space used up. Now I far from being a genious but I know 20 is not half of 200, can anyone explain the reason or maybe I did something wrong?

Thanks

Which version of Windows?

When cloning did you request that all of the drive by used or just part of it; in other words was the usable space expanded.

Its win xp pro.

To be honest I used the default settings on the data lifeguard software, except I choose bootable drive instead of storage drive. Maybe I shpuld just reformat and do it again... this time I'll pay attention to the options that mention use up all drive or just partial.
