I have a 500 gig HD that is corrupt and I am only able to use about 100 due to a botched partitioning. I tried using Norton partitionmagic. help?

In these kinds of cases, I'd backup my files on external storage and reformat the whole hard drive...

Quite a bit of space compared to my 37gig hard drive.
Well if PM failed you, I don't know what won't. Good luck with that.

Right click on my computer and select manage
on the left hand side, click on computer management and next post a picture of that.

Just want to see how XP sees that bad drive as Norton isn't giving a detail info.

If it's failing that badly, I wouldn't be surprised for the rest to go out.
Whatever you do, back your files up someplace.
