| 394164 | 2005-10-07 22:38:00 | with 120mb ram? good luck. what i was meaning is, i thought you wanted to speed up your computer by freeing up some space, and by deleting some stuff you would think that everything would load faster.....but it wouldnt due to the amount of ram. but just whatever..... |

Gets ALL of your disk space back that way . ;) zahmad: I am not entirely convinced that you are not a troll . Edit: Oops . . . . I didn't notice Metla had already suggested the same thing . :rolleyes: Ah well, great minds think alike, so the saying goes . :p |

And if know what you are doing you can clearout Servicepack files and Hotfixes folders that build up in C:\WINDOWS windirstat (http://windirstat.sourceforge.net/) will help you find the space hogs... |
