   Greetings:   
      
   I am having a problem whereby my disk is reporting as FULL (123MB   
   remaining on a 18.6GB drive)   
      
   ODDITY 1:   
   When I add up the sizes of the files on the drive, it comes to just   
   under 13GB. Even adding in space reserved for system restore, this   
   takes it to 15GB   
      
   ODDITY 2:   
   Running disk clean-up, it shows that it should recover approximately   
   2GB.....but after running and even rebooting, the available space   
   jumped up to only about 400MB....and then on subsequent reboot when   
   back to only 123MB.   
      
   How can I find out what is taking up the free space on the drive and   
   remove it?   
      
   Thank you!
