| 294944 | 2004-11-22 07:57:00 | I have an IBM Thinkpad 570E with a 2Gig C drive which is close to full. I have tired all the things I can think of to free up space in C but have run out of options. There must be somebody out there with some super cool ideas on how to get some more stuffing out of the C drive. All suggestions appreciated. Dave |

| 294948 | 2004-11-22 08:20:00 | have you considered formating and starting on the 20gig drive? | Prescott (11) | ||
| 294949 | 2004-11-22 08:43:00 | I did not think that that was possible......perhaps it is?! | PJKing (2630) | ||
| 294950 | 2004-11-22 08:47:00 | just back up your important data, and reformat but then only save/install your software to that 20gig hdd HTH |

| 294951 | 2004-11-22 08:53:00 | The partition is hard wired. But won't the OS (Win2K) look for the boot programs in C? | PJKing (2630) | ||
| 294952 | 2004-11-22 08:58:00 | oh its a partion :p im not too sure but can you just wipe both of them and install the os on d? |

| 294953 | 2004-11-22 09:00:00 | Yep, it is a hard wired partition that cannot be moved! | PJKing (2630) | ||
