• Satellite M200 Vista shows that the HARD drive is full of 98%

  This problem showed about 2 months ago the system started running slowly and after a bit of research, I went to computer and found he showed that the HARD drive was full of 98%. Then I went and disabled the feature of shadow copy that reached about 3 Gig. After that, the performance was still hurt, so I decided to do a system restore. All reformatted once was good again until a week ago, and the same problem came back once again.

  This laptop is running Vista Home Premium SP1, 120 Gig drive HARD, Kaspersky Anti-virus, it has very limited connection to the Net, as it is mainly used to store and transfer music on an Ipod (20 GB of music).

  Any thoughts? Maybe a hardware failure?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hardware failure is very likely, since you are clearly able to access your hard disk without problem.
  Looks like you are using software that could be gradually fill the hard drive with data, such as a log file, it is difficult to say.
  With the erosion of the space, you might want to periodically check each folder in drive C (right click, properties) and see how it changes for each new session.

  Also clean the temporary files would help such as for:

  "c:\temp".
  "c:\windows\temp".
  "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp.
  erase internet files of Internet Explorer cache / temporary
  deactivation and reactivation then "System Restore" (do this only if you are satisfied with Vista is running stable)

• My hard drive is full

  My hard drive is full. Can I move files from the external hard drive on a hard disk without causing damage? Or do I have to add more space to my PC. How would (rookie) best install more space on mine. I would like to learn.
  Thank you

  Hello

  Yes, you can move the data files on an external hard drive. You can also add a new disk
  the computer - easier to a PC than a cell phone (even if the two can be made).

  If you want to move a program installed, not just the data, you must uninstall
  and then re-install the new disk.

  ---------------------------------------------------

  Run DiskCleanup - start - all programs - Accessories - System Tools - Disk Cleanup

  You may want to transfer some data, images or documents on removable media such
  as the USB keys, USB (my choice) or even CD/DVD drives (make multiple copies if
  the use of these).

  -----------------------------------------------------

  Info:

  System restore usually holds 15% of disk space and updates that are necessary for running computer
  consume even more. Backup - Options of recovery and even MS updates and those of HP, Dell
  or similar manufacturers use the space if your charging system. There are also overhead for the readers are not
  format to their maximum capacity.

• Equium A200 - 15l - hard drive almost full Vista, what now?

  On my hard drive of laptop theres 2.
  C; Vista and E; Data.
  My Vista drive is almost full so what do I do now?
  I thought that once the Vista was full disk of data take longer, but no.

  Advice please.

  Hello.

  You can do this:

  1. disk cleanup
  2 turn off the system restore
  3. create a new hard driver small, extracted from your data disc, for swap space. Leave the C drive for the new driver swap space. If you have 2 GB of memory, you can find, it is useful to create a hard drive to third with 4 GB of swap space, or windows will use the drive space it.
  4 format your hard drive and perform a new installation. You don't like it I guess :)

  Good luck.

  Disk Cleanup:

  Delete files using disk cleanup

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup

  1. By clicking on the Start button to open Disk Cleanup , on all programs, accessories, click System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.

  2. In the Disk Cleanup Options dialog box, choose whether you want to clean your own files only or all files on the computer. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  3. If the disk cleanup: drive selection dialog box appears, select the hard disk you want to clean and then click OK.

  4. Click the Disk Cleanup tab and select the check boxes for files that you want to remove.

  5. When you have finished select the files you want to delete, click OK, and then click on delete files to confirm the operation. Disk Cleanup on delete all unnecessary files from your computer.

  The other Options tab is available when you choose to clean up the files of all users on the computer. This tab includes two additional ways to free disk space even more:

  • Programs and features. Open programs and features in Control Panel, where you can uninstall programs you no longer use. The column size in programs and features shows how much disk space each program uses.

  • System Restore and shadow copies. Guests delete you all but the most recent restore point on the disc.

    Use system restore to return your system files to an earlier point in time, restore points. If your computer is running normally, you can save disk space by removing the previous restore points.

    In some editions of Windows Vista, restore points can include previous versions of files, called the shots and backup images created with Windows complete PC Backup. This information will also be deleted. For more information about system restore, search Windows Help and Support 'system restore.

• Hard Drive C full disk cleanup does not

  My hard drive C has been fine for a long time.  Then all of a sudden in a period of about a year he started fill by itself.  I would deal with the problem with the disk cleaning and remove programs and files is no longer needed, but every time I did that it would end up a bit more than before (it would mean 40%, then fill up to 65%, then disk clean he would stay to 45% full).

  Now, I have 110 MB of space on a 30 GB C drive, and I've done everything I can.  I ran thousands of times drive cleanup, I have eliminated all the programs that I don't use, and I transferred all my music and movies on my D drive (which is fine).
  I ran several scans, but there seems to be no worm.  I can't do system restore because I did a restore a year ago.
  Is there something I can do, or is editing and re - install Vista my only option?

  Look with in the settings of your programs to change to the D drive. You can also copy existing data to D:, just copy it and make sure everything is OK before you delete it on C: and make a backup.

• Hard Drive Hog/Full

  Dear all,

  IM relatively new to Adobe first Pro 2.0 and seeks advice.

  Im doing 20 minutes DVD on a recent tour of rugby Union, my system is very powerful, no problem.

  However, I started to make the DVD and my hard drive had 180GB left, Ive exported a couple of times and made the images a few times too. (i.e. pressing on enter). However, every time there are about 30 GB of space, for rendering. It displays even my hard drive slowly evaporate.

  I wouldn't mind if I could find the images and delete so I can free up my hard drive to the top. But they're all gone. I can not find them and if I do another report, it starts from frame 1 of 24350 and uses another 30 GB. I have 50 GB of left!

  Help, please

  Thank you

  Jamie

  Edit: I can find the exported images, he discovers and remove it. However, I can't find render files, why does do that and where are they going! Thank you

  The problem youre having is basically saying: "get another hard drive"... and put your projects and your property on this hard drive... not on your startup that is full of pork disk.

  Other problems re: scratch the disk and swap file which would also treat you re: your hard drive space... as although a few other things (disable disk "Indexing" for example), it becomes a bit complicated insofar as you have to do some reading on what to do and how to do and note taking and so on...

  In your preferences, you will see where your cache files are and stuff like that...

  I know that's not very good news to hear, but you really need to get another drive, a good fast... (ideally get 2 more!)

  rendering files help you change things faster and easier to see on your project controller. This is why it is done. He also sometimes "uses," those who make files for some 'effects' and things... in the export.  Like, if you do a clip to go back there "will make" clip backwards and use it in the export.

  So it's not a good idea to remove your render files to free up space, like it's just get made even foul later or just your project.

  PS... Good luck!

• Hard drive is full and I don't know why

  Hello

  The free space on my hard drive stop less and less even if I do not want to install anything on it. In fact I deleted the files and folders to try to increase the free space on the hard drive, but free space still less and less stops. I searched through the filesa and folders, etc, and there seems to be about 80 GB which is used by the hard drive that I can't find anywhere. I ran the software anti-virus and anti-spyware software that I also have a firewall running. However, the hard disc to stop continually complete with what I don't know. Any ideas?
  Darren

  Following your advice, I installed:

  WinDirStat - free
  http://WinDirStat.info/

  This allowed me to find all the files on my computer and better still highlighted the huge file that was causing the problem.

  The file at the root of the problem is a log file more 126 GB in size. He was hiding there in a folder on my hard drive that Explorer windows normal not to find / identify. The logfile at the origin of the problem was "pyagcore" and it seems if installed on your computer when you install the kiwee toolbar internet explore.

  I was able to delete the pyagcore file and then disabled and deleted the kiwee toolbar. Everything looks OK and I more 126 GB of hard disk space back.

  Cheers and thanks a lot for your kind cooperation.

• Host of hard drive is full - need to delete snapshots

  Hello

  I try to help someone who has a Mac running Windows 7 64 bit Pro using VMware Fusion 5.0.3.  They have a hard disk of 1 TB but now only 725 MB of free space!

  I checked the settings of VMware and they had AutoProtect Snapshots on 1 dollar a day, and set "maximum number of snapshots to keep: ' 3.

  When you view the instant history, it shows that there are 51 snapshots with the first (oldest) being 55.4 GB, GB 8.7 second and third 958,3 MB.  There is also a second tree that has only one sheet about 20 shots later.

  What is the best way to remove these pictures I saw barley have any storage space.

  I also don't mind not completely destroy all snapshots and new.

  Thanks in advance!

  What do you mean exactly by that?

  What is the best way to remove these pictures I saw barley have any storage space.

  With this little space it is really not that you can do with this package of Virtual Machine on this disk is almost full for correctly * clean. * Properly, i.e. delete snapshots via the Snapshot Manager.  You must either release the right amount of space needed to accomplish the task or temporarily move the package of Virtual Machine to another disk that has the amount of space needed for the appropriate task.

  There are other options, but I guess that when you answer the question I asked can I give more details.

  BTW DO NOT try a whole instant deletion via the snapshot to manage with so littk of free space on the disk of the host that you will break it doing!

  Hi michaelavatar,

  Also, please try the following links to clear up space on the c: drive.  As temporary internet files, the windows system restore points, etc. These spaces as time will pass.  Restore points can take a lot of space as windows create more restore points.  Prior to links, always good to backup data and files first.

• Dell Mini computer, 9-gigabyte hard drive is full. I think with duplicates windows XP. I have here a program to detect duplicates and remove?

  I use a Dell Mini with electronics 9 GB HD. It is entirely filled whith what, in my view, is at double window XP program.

  Y at - it a program online, I can get to double program ID (files) lines and remove a?

  At least the double file Finder knows which copy is correct - which would not be wise.

  9 GB?  Backup to some USB Thumb Drive all that you need to format the device, install Windows XP, install the latest drivers and all the patches (ideal if you can start Windows XP with SP3 integrated installation), then just the applications you * need *.  Should be between 4.5 and 6 GB of things.  Leave you much, but - it is a mini. ;-)
