My problem could be the same as http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/270323-32-disk-management-windows-explorer-show-partition-sizes. However I am not too sure what the protocol is, whether I should start a new thread or continue with that one. That thread is marked solved but I can't see where the solution is.
I have two hard discs on one of the computer for testing purpose. One of them has multiple partitions are dedicated separately to Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows 2008 and Windows 2003 as well as two partitions for data and images respectively. The other disc has only Windows 7 parition. They had been working fine for some time. All of the sudden the capacities of all the partitions from 20G to 90G shrunk to 500M when viewed from 7, vista or 2008. From 2003 it is fine. I have done chkdsk /r and chkntfs and none of them has problem.
From the Windows 7 partition of the disc that has multiple partitions even indicate that its own partition and the other two partitions for data and images has zero byte free. These inconsistencies indicate on Window Explorer and top part of the Disk Management in Computer Management whereas the bottom part of the Disk Management in Computer Management is correct.
I am getting desperate so I need to look to more resources.
