hello again
ok doki, i filed up my 80gig hard drive today. oh dear god. yet the computer is still fast, however this could explain my computer crashing with games all the time.
i have emptied 16gig worth of stuff so far and i have this folder filling up 1 gig
C:\Documents and Settings\[USER]\Local Settings\Temp
what can and cant i delete in it
also, do you know of any other good places where some large random files could be hiding.
thank you

Hey there HL!
Try this excellent little app: http://www.pchelpforum.com/utilities/10585-treesize.html - it'll tell you where all of that precious space is going. Also, try deleting the folder in safe-mode ![]() Moved to XP/2K
