Ok,

Since Im on hi speed now Ive been looking a bit more at my storage situation.

I have music on this pc, hard telling how many for sure but I would say roughly 1000-1200 songs total.

I have been cleaning out ALL the junk I can, program wise...

Im STILL using 28 GB... I was able to shed a tad over 2GB...

Now I had system resotre on and a large file capacity for some time. I backed it down to only give 512MB...

What the heck is taking all my space on my hard drive?

Junk probably. You need to clear out your internet explorer cache. THAT can be fricken huge. It's real easy to eat up space with almost anything though.

I only use Mozilla anymore?

$NtServicePackUninstall$

I have MULTIPLE files with names like that under my windows folder. They are hidden files...

Can I delete them safely?

Also a ton of random .log files...

?

You can delete the service pack uninstall stuff, but I wouldn't advise it. How much space does that take up?

You can always go through some main folders and find out which ones have the most stuff in them to help narrow it down.

yeah definately clear your history.. i know people that havent ever cleared and when they did, they had over 2gigs.. also run a defrag, or you could just back up all the things you need and reformat... also try running some spyware stuff... try HiJackThis. Ad Aware, Spybot Search And Destroy, Trend Micro(website), The Cleaner, many more good ones.

all that they said is good, also if you burn dvd's and cd's find out where the temp folder for that is. I know that nero creates an image when unripping a dvdrip back to a dvd. lots of stuff could be doing that. just get a second hdd, how big is the one you have? or just get a big one and partition it to make two drives, that what I do

Ok they are gone now...

Took almost 2 minutes to get them outta the recycle bin...
