Re: VirtualBox claims I have no free space on my c: drive
Yes it worked. Now you can follow Step 2 of the HOWTO which will tell you how to resize the logical space in the disk, which needs to be done at the guest OS level.

Re: VirtualBox claims I have no free space on my c: drive
Virtualbox drives are general small, therefore if possible always save on your host machines shared folder-s. This also saves your work in case the vm crashes on saving the machine state.
I never had any trouble with Windows XP. but Windows 7 and 10 have crashed on saving machine state a few times, So has Debian Wheezy with Linux CNC.

Re: VirtualBox claims I have no free space on my c: drive
I ran out of space on my VM and followed the procedure to expand the virtual drive from 25GB to 80GB. The "modifyhd" instructions seemed to work, when I view the settings of the VM says the storage space is now 80GB. But when I view in the Disk Management window or with the GParted software it shows only 25GB total leaving me unable to increase the size of the partition. Any ideas? Thanks
