I want my drive to have what i want when i want it! lol ;) Here's another tip to get space back: regularly go through your torrent/p2p download directories and delete any zombies... i got back 6gigs from an *old* bearshare uninstall that didn't clean up the tmp dir by simply cleaning it myself Yeah, DVD’s are the way to go, or perhaps blu-ray ;) too bad its a pain in the ass to have everything on optical mediums… I want my drive to have what i want when i want it! lol ;)

I can't even find a disk cleanup program, how come?

So its worth giving a try, maybe you end up having a gig of extra free space :) @ da404lewzer

Windows doesn't start popping up the low-disk space balloon until around 100mb of free space, and you can clearly see before running Disk Cleanup that you will only gain about 8.2mb of free-space. Now, that might be a lot on your 10 gig drive, but the rest of us who are near or over a terabyte, 8 and a half megs is nothing. Thats roughly 2 mp3s. Here's a suggestion to people who need more space. Get a new hard drive (something over 10 gigs for starters), back stuff up to DVDs or delete unneeded files (like junk on your desktop or my documents). I mean, what can you honestly do with 8 megs?
