Go to my computer and right click on your local disk C: (usually) and click properties. Then go to disk clean up and delete temp files and anythin that is taking up space. Don't not tick compress old files and hibernate.

Open My Computer, click Tools, Folder options, View.
Select Show hidden files and folders and also untick Hide protected operating system files.
Now to the fun part. Deleting the files. When I delete these files I hold down the shift key while selecting delete. This performs a permanent delete i.e. the files do not get moved to the recycle bin.

The * is a wild card i.e. denotes all contents of the folder.
C:\temp\*

c:\windows\temp\*

The following two can be repeated for each user of the pc.

c:\Documents and settings\”user name”\local settings\temp\*

c:\Documents and settings\”user name”\local settings\Temporary internet files\*

These steps will free up a good chunk of space and keep you running.

It is important to put the setting we changed back so we need to go to My Computer and Tools and Folder Options, select the View tab and select

Hide hidden files and folders and also tick Hide protected operating system files.

Good luck and thanks for enquiring.
