I have a business who has a hand full of Dell laptops. They all seem to be
having the same issue. They have 40GB hard drives and Windows XP Pro with
SP3. They are all connected to a Windows Server 2003 domain. They are all
getting low disk space messages. I know that 40GB is not much but they
shouldn't be using that much space. One in particular had only a couple
hundred MB free. Deleted all the temp files, disabled hibernation and turned
off system restore. It then had 5.5GB of free hdd space. I re-enabled
system restore but set a limit to 2GB. That next morning there was on 70MB
free space left. I disabled system restore agian and it is now showing about
1GB free. Searching for large files or newly created files does not really
come up with anything, at least nothing that is alarming. Since then a
couple more laptops started experiencing the same issue. They are running
Symantec Endpoint 12. No infections have been found. None of their desktops
seem to be having any issues with drive space. What else should I be looking
at? Thanks for your help.
