Hey all,

I was just about to install vista on bootcamp I have a 250gb hard drive in macbook pro, when I selected the partition it went and started to partition the hard drive. half way through the mac froze and I got the screen that I had to restart the mac.

 

now when I rebooted I only have 50gb left on my 250gb hard drive, when I started I had like 180gb. I went into bootcamp thinking it would have partitioned my Hard drive. Nope.

 

 

so where did my extra 130GB went???

 

 

is there a Huge cash file somewhere in my mac??

 

 

thank

 

steve

Check your partitions with Disk Utility. Also, try repairing your OS X volume, however you'll need to boot from the install DVD for this (when the system is running from the volume, you'll be able to verify it but not repair).

 

If you find that the partition has been shrunk, you may be able to restore it to the original size and start again, or just create a new one in the empty space (I don't know about MBR <-> GPT syncing, though).
