du does not find all directories

I just downloaded the latest version of gnu-win32 via all.tar.gz.
I find that du finds 335637 (presumably  times 512) Bytes on my hard
drive.  There are, in fact, close to 2 GBytes (why I am using it).  It
misses a number of directories including c:\windows.  I am running
Win95.  I don't know how to find out the version of gnu-win32, but I
downloaded it today.
    It is pretty reproducible (for me).  It gets exactly the same number
each time, even though I have been deleting files (apparently in
directories it is missing).
