| 1233466 | 2011-09-25 09:23:00 | One of my Netbooks only has 260mb free space on its 'C' drive. There is no swap file on the drive. Data, downloads, attachments, email, temp Internet files, my documents are all on another drive. The computer works well but persists in asking me if I want it to make more free space! How can I shut it up? I've got the message! I have looked in "God Mode" but found nothing. |

| 1233467 | 2011-09-25 09:33:00 | Either uninstall programs you dont need / use. Use ccleaner and remove temp files. Disable system restore. Thats probably where most of it has gone. Or get a bigger hdd | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 1233470 | 2011-09-26 01:03:00 | 250Mb??!! Re-do the partitions and make it bigger. No need - it doesn't need to use more space. All temp files are on another drive and system restore is off. I am being bloody minded! |

| 1233472 | 2011-09-26 01:34:00 | Mzee (respected elder) did you read the article at the link in post 3, down at the bottom it tells you how to stop the Low disk space warning if you really want to. | jinja_thom (4306) | ||
| 1233473 | 2011-09-26 02:31:00 | Or get a bigger hdd +1 If you have all other files elsewhere and its only the OS on the drive, time to get a larger one for sure. A few more Windows updates and your remaining space will be gone. |
