  Okay I supposedly had a 200gb hard disk. Then yesterday I got it reformatted. It was initally 75 gb used up, 125 gb free. After deleting the partition and continuing on to reformat, it became 125gb max size only! Windows and everything is stable now but the 75 gb kinda vaporised into oblivion. What gives?
