Default Vitually lost half of HDD space

Hi there, currently I have Ubuntu installed on 1 250 GB Drive and Vista on 1 160 GB Drive and I have just recently noticed that I only have available to me 75 GB of that 160 GB Drive. Any ideas on where the other half has (gone)?

Thanks

As discussed before... walkies.


Seriously, I expect that when you partitioned the drive, you left a whole load of unpartitioned space.

Have you booted gparted and looked to see if there is unpartitioned space?

Nah I haven't tried through GParted, *partly* due to the fact that notrace recounted a story of how his computer failed at accessing it. I will give it a go tomorrow.
