My BEST solution to this question would be to download CCleaner and run it.  You may have so many temp files or corrupted files hogging space.\n\nAlso, running a "Disk Cleanup" may be a good idea.  You can do this by right clicking the specified drive, clcik properties, then clcik "Disk Cleanup".\n\nBest of luck!

defragment your hard drive \nremove unwanted or unnecessary files

hi there,\n    oh yea, most of us have this problem, ok here we go, first of all in win XP there is a system restore feature, which eats a lot of disk space, last week I retrieved 1.2 gb from my friends harddrive by disabling system restore.  So, if you are sure that you pc in future will not require SYSTEM RESTORE feature then disable it by RIGHT CLICK on MY COMPUTER - > PROPERTIES - > then select SYSTEM RESTORE tab, then, using settings turn off system restore for all drives. this will save more space.\n\nAnd regarding the files you want to delete, open the search box below the LOOK IN box click WHAT SIZE IS IT?, then specify the estimated size like starting from 512000kb(500MB) (for every MB add 1024 kb), then click on MORE ADVANCED OPTIONS check the boxes of SEARCH SYSTEM FOLDERS(IF U WANT),SEARCH HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS, SEARCH SUBFOLDERS. thats it, by specifying these results you can search for a specified sized files even if its hidden.\n\n   I think the files in the temporary folders (TEMP N TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES) are not shown, for that go to ur system drive then DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS->(select ur login id)->LOCAL SETTINGS, in this folder you can see the two temporary folders, try to search those folders individually using search options.\n\nthats it\n see ya,\nK.A.G.S.

1. Defrag your hdd.\n2. Deactivate unnecessary startup application. (If using WinXP, can run 'msconfig' and check the startup tab.)\n3. Free up diskspace by deleting unnecessary files\n4. Upgrade your RAM to at least 512MB\n5. Disable eye-candies on UI\n6. Upgrade to WinXP if using other Microsoft OS, WinXp is todate the better one coming out from MS.

Your RAM is too low... although the minimum spec <according to Microsoft> is 64Mb, with 128Mb being recommended you really need 256Mb minimum to get anything like performance out of it, double that again and you'll get a system that performs well\n\n\nAddition: Low disk space isnt an issue here, as you have 25Gb free on your system partition. Hard disc usage has very little bearing on a systems speed, at least not until theres less than 15% of the drive free, as then defrag wont run. A properly optimised drive can be as full as you like, as long as the data is in the right places...ie: by the time the drive head has read one piece of data, the disc has spun to put the next bit it needs right under the drive head, so reading appears seamless

Try checking your hard disk memory!

The system has to take up some room. I think it doesn't count the drive space used by the system programs and libraries. The amount it gives you is the amount you're free to work with. Plus, you probably won't be using all of that up anytime soon anyway.

Ouch, get a DVD burner (Dual Layer).  Cd's only store less than 1gb.  That would leave you making 100 cd's for 70gb of data.

If you want to go the pricey way, you can get more RAM which allows programs to run. However, it may be cheaper and maybe better if you try these:\n1) Clear your unnecessary files by right clicking on your C drive and clicking on disk cleanup. At least remove temp and internet files.\n2) Remove any unwanted programs by going to control panel then clicking on add/remove programs.\n3) Run a disk defrag by clicking on programs, accessories, then system tools.\n4) Check your startup folder and make sure your computer isn't running any pointless programs at startup. This could drag on if your computer is not very fast to begin with.\n5) Refer to the first sentence if this will float your boat.

Try doing a defrag on it.  Assuming you are using Windows XP,\n\nStart > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > Disk Defragmenter\n\nYou might also want to try uninstalling any programs or utilities that you don't need or use.  Also, try doing a disk cleanup.\n\nStart > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > Disk Cleanup

It can take time, so do not cancel or close out windows while the process take place!

Not recommended.  100 mB is not alot of space anyway.  Either buy another hard disk for $59 on the Internet (you can get 80 mB for that...) or free up space on your hard disk by using CCleaner (ccleaner.com) or TuneUp Utilities (Tune-Up.com).  Also try Registry Mechanic by PC Tools.\n\nAll of these programs can clean lots of stuff off your HD.

Nowadays, 20GB is pretty small.  I'm also not sure what you mean by Unjoin the thing?\n\nFirst thing you should do is clear your hard drive of stuff in your temporary folder.\n\nThe problem is I'm not sure what OS you have.\n\nIf you have XP, you could right-click your hard drive in Windows Explorer, then click Properties and click the button Disk Cleanup.\n\nIf it's 98 or Me go into the &#92;Windows&#92;Temp folder and clean it out.\n\nThat's probably not going to get you a whole lot of space.  You will have to uninstall things or remove junk files before you get more space.\n\nFrankly, depending on the age of the system, I'd consider replacing the drive or adding another.  HDs are cheap nowadays.
