I read thru the sites...and I guess the simplest response is they say don't 
mess with D drive. just forget it because it doesn't get used until you do a 
recovery or reformat...sooooooooooooooooo I will forget it's there. And the 
one blog mentioned that you have no way of knowing what has been done to D 
drive if you defragment. It could have been damaged. SOOOO I will leave well 
enough alone. I just HATE the fact you have to make your own recovery 
disks...what cheap skates... any blooming way to save a $... I will keep the 
rest of my comments to myself about THAT

Hi,

It sounds like you have some variety of an HP computer
a couple of which I have and on which I ran into the
same problem you are talking about. I give you the two
sites that helped me on this one but remember they
apply to HP systems that come pre-installed with a
restore drive (usually D and usually with the amount
of free space you describe). If it is not an HP than
Gman's advice is the way to go.

The first one is the least techie :)

The second one is pretty thorough:
