Liwindi, all suggestions provided are actual solutions - though not necessarily solutions to your problem (vodka?!). Anyway, there are ways to save space temporarily: 1. Delete files in temp (explained above) 2. Delete some files from System Volume Information folder - its a system folder so be careful with it. 3. U can delete service pack installation files and windows update files from C:\windows. Microsoft angels will tell u 2 and 3 are not advisable so google for caveats. Now that u have space in d, u can simply cut (yes, cut) files from program files foldes to a folder in d, then restore them after extending C. A safer way would be to copy them to D first and only delete from program files after the copy is successful. In my opinion, you dont have to format C On 5/28/09, Dennis Kioko <dmbuvi@gmail.com> wrote:alternatively delete one of the large programs without Uninstalling it. It will create space to work around. As for partition magic, most people who use it end up formatting their computers due to errors they create while using partition magic. So use it carefully. CLONING is the best option so far.

If you have Hiren's Boot CD, you can resize your partition like I recently did without uninstalling anything. I use Acronis Disk Director Suite on the disk. I find it easy to use. HTH, Me.

Some of the S/Ws cannot be uninstalled reasons low disk space for the processes. The only way out is to format the C drive to create space but I have a software installed on the machine that I dont want to loose. Is there anyway I can make its backup since I lost its installation disk and to get another is going to cost me alot thanks alot _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks Other services @ http://my.co.ke Other lists ------------- Skunkworks announce: http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks-announce Science - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/science kazi - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/kazi/general-- שִׁמְעוֹן _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks Other services @ http://my.co.ke Other lists ------------- Skunkworks announce: http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks-announce Science - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/science kazi - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/kazi/general-- Read about how other countries are outdoing Kenyans when it comes to milking the taxpayer. all this and more at my blog: http://gramware.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks Other services @ http://my.co.ke Other lists ------------- Skunkworks announce: http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks-announce Science - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/science kazi - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/kazi/general_______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks Other services @ http://my.co.ke Other lists ------------- Skunkworks announce: http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks-announce Science - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/science kazi - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/kazi/general
