Drive C (Vista) - almost complete

I have a 80 GB hard drive, which is partitioned into C (41,79 gb) & D (27.86 gb) drives, theres also a main drive (4.88 GB) and some not allocated space (I have no idea why)

Player C has the stuff Vista, program files, the data of the user - and is almost full. I ran disc clean & defrag - whenever I do, I with 5to6 GB of free space and windows updates use then upwards again - if the player is found in the red zone. For example, I ran last week of cleaning/defrag had 6 GB of space after, now 3 GB

D drive has 24 GB of free space - then tried to use the management software to reduce the score. However at best it will shrink only by about 2 GB but actually won't do because access is denied.

If I delete the D drive, I can allocate more space on the C drive & then recreate another smaller drive D and as I am not allowed to shrink drive D will be allowed to delete.

You try to make the wrong way.

You can't take a piece off D: and nail it on C:

Back up the data on D: > D: delete > c: then spread the now unallocated space where D: is.

  • Pavilion Office c 550-047: desktop HP Pavilion nine shows drive D as almost complete (2.43 GB free 19 GB)

    I just set up my new 550-047c Pavilion desktop that I bought at Costco. "My computer" shows that the recovery Image (drive D) has only 2.43 GB 19 GB free. I haven't used this computer much at all, is not a lot of navigation. This doesn't seem fair.

    Please explain.

    Hello:

    What you see is completely normal.

    Drive D:\ is the recovery partition, and it was only performed large enough at the factory to accommodate the recovery files needed to restore your PC to its State 'out of the box.

    Never store other files on that partition.

  • How to clean my disk overloaded space in C drive? Almost complete. Says "low disk space". Thank you in advance.

    How to clean my disk overloaded space in C drive?  Almost complete.  Says "low disk space".  Thank you in advance.

    I'd be interested to see a report of Disk Defragmenter. Open Disk Defragmenter and click analysis. Select view report, and then click Save as and save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents folder. Open the file, and place the cursor anywhere in the file, select Edition, select all to select all the text and copy and paste into the body of your message. To do this, before you run Disk Defragmenter because it is more informative.

    Follow a few basic maintenance note.

    1.5 the tool provided in Windows to remove unwanted temporary files is disk cleanup. To access this tool select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. You must then run Disk Defragmenter.

    1.6 using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before that the error occurred initially, do not use this option.

    1.7. If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.

    1.8. a better alternative program to disk cleanup is cCleaner. The freeware version works well for a home user and must be downloaded from Piriform program provider:
    http://www.CCleaner.com/download

    1.9. When you open cCleaner you will see four large icons to the left of the window. Here's cleaner them, registry, tools, and Options. For routine maintenance, you normally acceding Cleaner (this is not the mentioned registry cleaner later). When using for the first time only, you can accept the default settings.

    1.10. some observations on the parameters. On my computer, I do not have the boxes before the passwords saved selected. In a less secure environment, you could check this option and set cCleaner to run automatically when the computer starts. You also cannot check the boxes in front of shortcuts from the Start Menu, desktop shortcuts and historical form. You must check the boxes according to your needs. Bad first time options causes irritating no disasters.

    1.11. the second icon that you see when you open cCleaner's registry. A reserve many experienced users have about cCleaner, it's that it comes with a registry cleaner. This tool should not be used. By using a registry cleaner, but it is the case, provides significant benefits and there is always the risk of creating insoluble system errors, which cannot be resolved by reinstalling the operating system and all that that implies. You will avoid any possible problem of not not by clicking on the Save icon.

    1.12 the third icon that you see when you open cCleaner is tools. If you click this icon, it gives you access a routine plus service options. The first two tools are uninstalled and commissioning. I do not use these tools, preferring to use other software options. The third tool is the restoration of the system, which is covered in the next paragraph. The fourth tool is Wiper Drive and you will find reviews about this tool later

    1.13 removing the system restore points can be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments. This makes it easier to hold the restore points for long periods without keeping large unwanted files, whose inflexible approach to disk cleanup fails to offer.

    1.14. you can't remove the last restore point using the cleaning disc or cCleaner. If the last restore point contains malicious software, you can turn off and then turn on system restore. This has the disadvantage that restore all points are removed when you want to keep more restore points that are not infected. How to get round this problem is to create a new restore point when you are satisfied with your computer is free of malware and then remove the infected restore point.

    1.15. in normal circumstances, you probably rarely need to use Driver wiper. However, there are situations like if you gave the computer to someone else, then the tool may be useful. Please note that the wiper Drive, opening, generates a warning message, which should not be dismissed lightly. Using wiper Drive for the wrong reason could have serious consequences.

    1.16 the fourth icon is labeled Options. Many configuration options are available here. You can configure cCleaner to run when start you but remember that this will slow down the boot. Another setting allows you to include or exclude cookies. Yet another allows files named to exclude.

    Can someone show me dirrection to solve this problem.

    Hello

    Regardless of the type of disc you use once in VMware ESX allocates space on the disk it will never resume. It will happen as two snacks of thin disc as thick disk. Only difference is that the thin disk allocation is on request and for thick it is pre configured.

    Now, when we see inside the guest, he will see some quantity using comments he will never see beyond that, because of virtualization. But the esx host is aware of what his size allocated to this disc.

    Hello!

    Have you tried to install the driver to display on the Toshiba site? You can find it here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    Before you try to install a new display driver, you must remove any old version in Add/Remove programs. Then, restart the laptop and use CCleaner to clean the system. Restart again and then install the new version.

    You have the same problem with the factory settings? In the worst case, you must reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc.

    Maybe the 64 bit Vista drivers are not available at this moment, because this series is new to the market and the driver 64 bit Vista will be released in the near future.

    I think that it s just a matter of time when the pilots will be published on the European driver Toshiba page.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: Officejet Pro 8600 copies are almost completely black

    Copies of the Officejet Pro 8600 are almost completely black.  The party central - perhaps an ich in width - is somewhat readable.  Printed documents are okay. This printer is 2.5 years old and worked fine in what concerns all the until today.  Thank you.

    Hello @Tim1943 and welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I see that you use in the copy output problems.  I would like to help!

    I would recommend starting with a power reset.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I suggest you then plug the power to the printer into a different wall outlet.

    Another recommendation would be updated the firmware of the printer:

    Printer updates for HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911), 6600 (H711) Officejet and Officejet 6700 Premium (H711) e-all-in-One Printer Series
