HD capacity bar: free space stuck at 3/4 (pic inside)

[RYB]

Hi everyone,

I have a 320GB Samsung HD322HJ hard drive (Vista 64bit).

The capacity bar always shows that my HD has about 3/4 of free space left, even though the following pic clearly shows it doesn't:

Is there a way to reset/fix the bar so that it shows the correct amount of free space left?

Thanks for any suggestions.

The blue section shows how space is used the white how much is left, to me it looks correct, doesn't it?

EDIT: You've got 27% free space so does look right to me.

Yep, that makes sense to me. The bar used to show how much free space was left, but now it shows how much space is in use instead. Do you know a way I could make it show free space again, instead of used space?

I've never known it to show blue for free space, this is what you mean isn't it? Unless you had some 3rd party tool installed, the text shows you the amount of free space anyway and makes more sense in terms of how many Mb you have left then the bar.
