Disk Space

[Guest]

I have 227 GB of disk space. I've been running vista home premium with no
problems and have not got much installed or loaded on my computer. Today I
rcieved a warning that I was running out of space!!!!!!!!!! 182GB are
attributed to my personal user files yet I cannot find them to figure out
what they are, My own personal data etc that I have loaded into my computer
accounts for around 7GB so where has all the rest (175GB) disappeared to. Am
very confused as previous computer only had 33GB with XP and only ever used 9
GB. Have done the usual disk clean up, emptied recycle bin,
deleted/unistalled unwanted programmes and this has only given me back 3 GB.

Use a tool such as Windows Directory Statistics from http://windirstat.info/
to help you find what is using all of the space on your HD.
