Expanding Virtual Hard Disk not expanding?

I have VHD about 3,7GB in size and that is consistent with the diskspace I
can see within the virtual machine (a win2003). When initiating an edit of
the VHD in can see it is the type Expanding and the size is about 16GB.

My problem is Low Disk space so why is it not expanding like its supposed to?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Steen

Because you only specified a 4 GB partition when installing the OS in
the virtual machine. What would happen if you had a real 16 GB disk
drive in a real computer and chose to create a 4 GB partition during the
OS install? Same thing is going on here.
