Hi. I have a 20 gig hard drive and have windows xp and nortons 2005 installed. I get an icon that says Low disk space. When i checked the system properties it says i have 7719mb of unallocated space and 9766mb capacity. How do I tap into the unallocated space so I can use more of my hard drive? Thanks for your help.

It sounds as if you have a partitioned hard drive and the full hard drive was not used in a partitioning. You will need a program such as partition magic to pick up the unallocated space. There use to be a free product called Partition Resizer a year ago that I used. Try a google search.
