My 80 GB Hard drive had only about 12 GB used. Strange
things have happened where 79 GB was used then it went to
47 GB. How do I get rid of what is adding to the hard
drive? Thanks
 
Hi Tom,

Refer section "Hard Disk - Cleaning" here:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_h.htm

Use DiskPie2 utility to see which folder in the hard disk is taking up the
space. Goto that folder and delete the unwanted files.

Additionally, use Disk Cleanup and purge all system restore points except
the last point. Click Start/Run/Cleanmgr / More Options / system restore
/cleanup.
