Just a thought - you haven't got a huge page file have you?  I believe the default 
page file size is 1.5 physical memory, so this could account for some of the space if 
you have a lot in there.

Howdy folks,

<short attention span summary>
I start out with a 16GB OS partition cleanly formatted and install Windows
2003 Server. At the end of installation, I have just about 500MB disk space
free. Has anyone seen this before?
</short attention span summary>

This has been a bit of an annoyance for a few days now. I have a Dell 1655MC
Blade server which I'm installing Windows 2003 Server on. I boot from the CD
and perform a clean install - wiping out previous partitions, formatting,
etc. Now the disk space numbers are correct for my partitions during the
setup (16GB OS partition and 60GB applications partition) but after I
complete the install of Windows 2003, it shows an available disk space
report of just 500MB left on that 16GB drive with JUST the OS installed. 

I've begun a search on Google ("Windows 2003 Installation Low Disk Space"
and variants) but maybe I'm not searching with the proper query. Has anyone
else seen this?

Regards,
Lou
