[QUOTE="robbiemullen, post: 454038, member: 10635"] got the problem sorted...it was to do with File vault. i had file vault turned "On" and i tried to turn it off but it wouldnt let me cos of the low space on the hard-drive...i then restarted the machine and it started "allocating hard drive space" in other words File Vault was doing its thing...this took over an hour maybe longer (woke up this morning and the machine was off)...booted back up and hey my HD went back up to an acceptable 28Gb.. Its funny because File Vault was turned on, yet that prompt that comes up (Skip or Continue) when shutting down your machine never came up in all the time i have been using the macbook pro..every time i shut down my G5 that prompt comes up and i hit "Continue"... Thanks to everyones suggestions.... [/QUOTE]
