If i hit Esc twice i can get to editing the machine and i get this.  The drive is actually 104GB with 88 used.

I can change the drive size to 150 or 200 and it goes right back again.

I've tried expanding it and it's back to 100GB when i go to edit.

The server is crashing randomly with 0x4e protection, which i think is because windows is writing outside of the 100GB.

Welcome to the Community,

It looks like you are using the GA version (v1.8) of the Host Client. The current version (v.1.18) contains several new features as well as bug fixes, so I'd suggest that you update the Host Client "esx-ui" to see whether this solves your issue.

The mentioned Host Client version is included in the latest patch bundle, or can be updated individually (see e.g. https://esxi-patches.v-front.de/ESXi-6.5.0.html for the download link). Please make sure that you clear your browser cache after updating the Host Client!
