Where Are My 750 MB

Mossy Monk · 2003-01-27 05:14:58

this is really starting to confuse me a few days ago i had a cd on my hard drive in .wav format. after burning it to cd i deleted it. the problem is is that i did not get the hard drive space back. it is causing big problems because i only have a 3 gig hard drive. is there any way i can get it back?

Check either the burning tools options for its temp directory or take a look in its program directory as well.
