Q: Startup Disk is full but it's not full. What's wrong?

My MacHD has 29 GB used but it says the startup disk (250 GB) is full. I've used Disk Inventory X to examine the drive, but "other" is taking up 90% of the drive.

 

Shows the full size of MacHD as 29 GB

Show's the entire drive full of "other"
