[QUOTE="solson223, post: 1581790, member: 325590"] For some reason, after using the Boot Camp utility to delete my Windows partition, the space hasn't been reclaimed by OS X. I've done this before in previous versions of OS X and never had an issue. I've already used the Disk Utility and verified and repaired the disk. Everything checks out. However, it says that my disk capacity is 379GB (500GB drive). I originally made my Windows partition for 120GB, or something like that. Any help would be appreciated in solving this problem. I really don't want to backup, format, and reinstall to fix this problem. Thanks in advance! :) [/QUOTE]
