1.5 GB seems pretty small for the computer you're using. Mine's a 10 Gig and it's alot older than yours. How much free space do you think you've got?

Go into the Control Panel in NT4 and look at "Disk Manager". When you open Disk Manager it should tell you the actual disk sizes, what partitions you have available and how they are formatted.

If you have any unpartitioned disk space create a partition and format it. That will make it available to the OS (it may get assingen a different drive letter though!).

Some system manufacturers only created a small partition to install the OS on and leave the rest for the user to do what they wanted. Your's sounds like one of those.

Does that administrative tool exist in Windows 98. I know where it is in the Win2000 machines I set up at work, but I don't know if it exists on my own machine.

Which administrative tool are you talking about, Wilso? Disk Manager? No that isn't in Win98.

If there's a specific thing you're trying to do, we can prolly help you find an alternative method though.

Disk Manager only exists in WinNT, Win2000 Pro and WinXP Pro. As Monger said though, there are other ways to do things from the other OSs depending on what you are trying to do.

See how my drive is partitioned-graphically. I know its got fdisk which probably has got a way to do it, but I'm not experienced at using it. I could always bring a copy of gdisk home from work, which I do know how to use.

Fdisk won't show your partition information graphically. PowerQuest PartitionMagic (now owned by Symantec) is relatively easy, can run from Windows, and offers more control than fdisk. But if you're comfortable with gdisk & it does what you need, stick with it.
