What Happened?

I have no clue what happened but on my HP Laptop I have a capacity of 105 GB Hard Drive and I Had 60GB remaining on it but for some reason I ran my disk clean-up and I have a gadget tool on the right that said I had 27GB left after the clean-up. I lost about 32GB and can't find it anywhere. Please help me here. More info found, Apparently my 32GB that had disappeared are unallocated.

I just noticed from whatever ever happened to my laptop it has caused my 105GB Capacity to go to 72.5G Capacity.

Here is my little Gadget with my current space on it. (Drive D is my backup)

Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard (HP)
Model: HP Pavilion dv 9000
Processor: AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-52 | 1.60GHz

Thanks for all your help

Disk cleanup? Do you mean the default disk cleanup in Windows, or something else?

Yes I do mean Disk Clean-up. It gets rid of unnecessary files that I don't use or have no point of being on my computer. Its the default clean-up. It sounds weird but this is what caused my my computer to mess up. Also my Local Drive C, I renamed it Master Drive.

From the look of this:

Your 32GB have become unpartitioned.

Edit, Today, September 23 my GB went from 24 -> 36
