K215B Spec Problem

I recently purchased a K215B VAIO laptop from the Dabs.com online retailer. I was impressed with the specs of the machine for the price asked. However, after receiving my laptop, I noticed that there are two hard drives instead of one. The first is labeled C: and amounts to a memory capacity of 18.6GB, the second is 😧 and is only 13.9GB. The advertised capacity was 40 GB, both on the retailer's site and on the stickers on the outside of the laptop!

Also, I have since noticed that the amount of RAM installed is not the 512MB as advertised, but is instead only 448MB...is this right? Is anyone else's laptop under what is specified by the retailers, or is it just me who's been short-changed?:smileycry:

Easy solution nick.....turn off your temperature measuring software :tongue: . I think I'll put my RAM up to 1024 at some point, would do the world of good.

Who is that in your profile by the way? Looks like paris hilton
