    Alright, so my regular HD died and I called Dell and they sent me a new one. Same exact thing, 80GB. I popped it in and began trying to redownload my lost files and it suddenly stopped at 29GB. I found this odd so I looked at MyCompter and it says that my HD is only 31.4GB capacity. I used Disk Management and it shows the attached picture. Please help me!

    Care to share the program with us? It might help some other members to know what you used to fix it.
