http://live.pirillo.com/ - A user in the chat room needs some serious help: he deledted all of the programs he doesn't use, but he is still low on disk space.
If you have a small disk drive you will probably have to get a larger drive - either internal or external. In today's world, a 20GB drive is only going to take you so far, and you'll really need to look elsewhere for your storage woes.
Sometimes programs don't take up most of the space. In fact, in a world of digital media, your photos, movies, and music can take up a lot more space than your programs.
If your media is taking up a lot more space than it should, you'll need to consider how you're going to remove it from your system. If you need to save the files then you'll want to back them up to CD or DVD (but remember: CDs and DVDs have a limited shelf life and will fall to "bit rot"). You might want to consider getting an external hard drive just to store your digital media.
You might also consider changing the size of your pagefile, as a large pagefile can take several gigabytes of disk space; however, this is a very temporary solution.
Do you have any advice for freeing up disk space?
