Showing bad disk capacity
The Windows98 Explorer shows bad disk capacity using the properties/general feature window. In fact with fdisk command, information: i have partition c: 2047 Mbytes FAT32 pri dos type, and a d: 4095 Mbytes FAT32 ext dos. The Explorer shows me c: 5.98GB disk capacity and d: 3.99GB. The information is not good for the c: partition. Is there a way to resolve this problem....
OS: Windows 98 Second Edition Thank you |
