I have been getting the "low disk space" message every time i boot up, saying
that i only have 20MB-200MB left on the C drive, which i know is completely
wrong. I have deleted numerous files and transfer countless files to my
external hard drive for the past week, and if this keeps continuing, im not
going to have any more files to delete to create space!! (running Windows XP,
40GB hard drive, 2.8gh P4, 1gb RAM~ Dell 4600) In the past week i have
cleared at least 10GB from my hard drive since ive gotten the message.
When this occurs, windows explorer decides to restart itself countless times
in a row until i create more space, which has become annoying. Also, for some
reason, (dont know if this is related) my taskbar has been resetting its
settings and no programs show up on the taskbar and it removes the quick
launch bar. AND i have to go in and uninstall/reinstall the audio device
every boot up to get it to work.
I noticed that going to regedit everytime i boot up is a short term fix for
the taskbar problem, but i really dont feel like going through the trouble
everytime i turn my computer on.
I also have noticed that the processes running on my computer have
decreased, from 50 to around 38+ which is weird.
I know a decent amount of stuff about computers and have been able to keep
the computer going like this for a week or so. Also, i am debating buying a
new computer just because of this one is getting old, or is there a way that
i can avoid that and just fix this issue.
Any help would be much appreciated! thanks!!
