Re: Space Issue
After cutting and pasting of folders from program files i think you might need to reinstall windows . So just make a backup of all your data , grab some munda from your street who is doing his computer science degree , and tell him to reinstall windows on your system after formating your hard drive . :k:
Re: Space Issue
^ OOhhh i m doing it from add/remove now.........n i also m thinking that i wl need 2 have my jeeju reinstall my comp!
thanksssss so much for the help...really appreciate it.
Re: Space Issue
If you are reinstalling windows, just go and buy at least a 80 GB disk. Its very cheap nowadays. If you dont, you will run into this problem in few months again.
Re: Space Issue

Re: Space Issue

yar something, somewhere, within this thread, or between what you are trying to do vs what you're reporting, isnt adding up right.
here is my last attempt:
make a folder called "mydocs2" somewhere on drive or partition that has ENOUGH space. (CANNOT be C: drive)
somewhere on your desktop, you will have MY DOCUMENTS folder, right click, PROPERTIES, u will have tabs of TARGET, GENERAL, and SHARING. within TARGET, notice where it says TARGET FOLDER LOCATION.
beneath that, u will have three buttons: RESTORE DEFAULT, MOVE and FIND TARGET.
this will start moving "my documents" which usually has a lot of stuff.. only thing i ask is that it cannot be on existing C: drive.
report back here.

LOL! i am sorry for being such a pain. I did what you just told me to but i m afraid it wudnt make much of a difference as i already had my documents stuff moved to d-drive. Ouch!
But i will shut up now and just have my jeju give my comp a look and most prolly give it a reinstall. thanks for your help....
all of you have been too sweet with yr help, i know how annoying it can be but u guys still kept helping me....thanks alot.
Re: Space Issue
The update: Mar mar ke i have been able to get 950mb of free space. Well its alot better than what i started off with i.e 197mb. But dayumm something is really wrong with my c-drive for sure cuz like i have been saying again n again i dont see anything "extra" saved up there. Argh.
Re: Space Issue
format your hard drive..and reinstall window again

hey man, no problem .. my curiosity is now shifted towards something called page file.. windows keeps this to rapidly access things which it cant keep in memory (ram).
rite click my computer from desktop, properties, advanced, first group of performance: click settings, advanced, in last group called virtual memory, click change, in c drive, click second bullet "SYSTEM MANAGED SIZE" , click SET, press OK 3 times, or somewhere it will ask to reboot. do that..
if that doesnt work, go to that screen again, use the THIRD option of NO PAGING FILE, click SET (otherwise it wont change). BUT at the same time make sure, you setup D Drive with a SYSTEM MANAGED SIZE (and click SET).
....and yes, i agree too that jeeju's reinstall /format/cleaning is a reliable solution.
y dont u just reinstall windows?
:p and while she's at it, y dont we get her to start using linux.. its the best rite?:D

Ok i did the #1 step and it askd to reboot n i just did that. But the space hasnt moved, or was it even suppose to?! So how do i know if it worked or not. Let me know so that if need be i go to #2. Thanks again.
Re: Space Issue
if after reboot, space on C: doesnt change, then yes try #2.

Installing Windows is a very fulfilling activity. Specially on a brand, spanking new hard-drive!! :D
PS: Linux is NOT the best, who have YOU been listening to?
