Bring it into the shop. They'll charge you like $10 and can give you all your system specs.

You're an idiot. He doesn't need that at all. You could have just said...

1. Go to "My Computer"
2. Find your main drive
3. Right click, go to properties

I'm not an idiot. I already knew that but since I use Windows XP I could not be completely sure about doing that in Vista.

Pazx - FAIL less than 1 mb left. O.o

I have 6.31 gb left.
I freed up like 8 gb just by deleting empty folders.

Amazed me how much space you can free just by deleting some 20 folders or so.

I don't use Vista (because it's bad), but I think this is the good answer.

Wow. How did you manage that? I mean, really, Windows even tells you when you have 200 or less MB left. You're supposed to have more than 200 for it to run properly. I'm not sure if you should be able to use your computer very well anymore.


O.o

I am clueless... And that was actually a couple of days ago, it hasn't said it since...

Why are you reformatting your drive? You still have 68 GB. I have a 75 GB HD with only 8GB left.
