Hi!

My DC's system disk is almost full, eventhough that it only ran as DC, Print
server and Intranet web apps. I already move my spooler directory to diffent
disk but still it didn't help. I always clear my EVLs, it helped but not
much. Any tip that I need to do?

regards,

Me
 
Some things to check;

Clean out your %windir%\Temp, and \Documents and Settings\%username%\Local
Settings\Temp directory. Delete the Temporary Internet Files, and History.
Do you have a disk defragmenter, if not get one and use it. You could use
Find|Files/ Folders and search the drive for; say files greater than 5mB and
then decide if they're needed. Check the %windir% directory for a
$NtServicePackUninstall$ directory, if your current service pack is stable
and you don't anticipate backing down, you can delete the dir. Also check
for the existence of User.dmp and Memory.dmp (both, by default should be in
the %windir% directory) you can delete these unless your going to send them
to the application vendor, or Microsoft for troubleshooting purposes. Other
options are; moving the pagefile to one of the other drives, uninstall your
programs that are installed in C:\Program Files and reinstall them to
D:\Program Files.

thanks dave. it helped but not much. Do you think its advisable to reinstall
the windows and increase its partition? The server role is important since
it is the PDC emulator or the first W2K DC, so I need to transfer the role
and all the shared folders to other server. Do you have a guide on this so I
may use as my reference?
 
See if something here helps you.
