My missing space was taken up my System Restore, within System Volume Information, at least 50-60gigs!

Goto System -> System Protection -> under System Protection Tab click Configure and check how much disk space has been allocated to system restore. That was my issue.

You can also use certain freeware programs to check which folders are taking up space. eg TreeView Free, WinDirStat or SpaceSniffer.

I hope that helps your situation.

I have the same problem, my used up space is 63 Gb, whereas the amount in files and folders is only 23.

I upgraded from Vista Business to W7 Professional, on an HP elitebook.
