Default Low Disc Space

Low disc space.
That flag is popping-up constantly.
My hard drive is divided and 2/3 of it is unused.
How do I move the partition?

All those photos you have downloaded could be sapping space.

Here is one solution if you are running Windows XP:

I would do exactly the OPPOSITE of removing the partition. Instead, learn to store your saved files ON THE UNUSED PARTITION. That way, if something on the "operating system" partition gets screwed, you can fix or reinstall software or the op without losing your stored "stuff."

I use Linux

The photo's are on Picasa and I think are stored in a 'cloud' over at Google.

I use Carbonite for back-up.
Paid for itself when I caught the email virus; I could fiddle around and delete all kinds of stuff without worrying about losing it and retrieve it with a button click when I totally screwed things up.

What has me befuddled is that, when I checked the Add/Remove Programs, there is 1,465.00 MB for the NVIDIA Drivers and that seems a lot.
