How to check space usage on a disk drive

L

Logoster

I just had a clean install done on one of my computers because the C drive
kept filling up. The C drive is 1.5 gigabytes. I have a second drive that
has 40 gigabytes. I reformated the C drive and re-installed win2000 to make
sure the disk was totally clean. I've been installing program files, music
files, etc. on the 40 gig drive. However, today my C drive only had 4
megabytes of space available. I cannot find where the space is being used.

Does anybody know of any utility/program that can rank folders on a drive by
how much disk space it is using? Any suggestions or ideas for why the drive
keeps filling up would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

A 1.5 gB system/boot partition is woefully small. I wouldn't install to
anything less than 4 gB (larger if you have the space)
