My Computer > Right Click C:(usally called Local Disk) > Proporties

My Computer > Right Click on the "C:\" drive (usually called Local Disk) > Properties. The purple is what you have free, blue is whats being used. But you shouldnt run out of space unless you store lots of games and videos on your computer.

Just fixing the grammar and the smily :)
 
May aswell add to this even though u solved his problem lol.

You could even go

"Start ---> My Computer -----> "Leave mouse over where it says (C:)" "

Then it will tell you what the total size of that drive is and how much room you have left.
 
But you shouldnt run out of space unless you store lots of games and videos on your computer.

Did they even ever make them :eek: , and if soo how long aggo would that have been. But im guesing he running XP from the advice people have given him. So generaly that would have come with a system with atleast 40gb HDD. But well yes, thats a question to ask, what operating sytem are you running as im sure its different for all :) .
 
He could have a 2 gig HD with Win 98, which i am unfortunately stuck with (til feb nxt year), but the same method still applies.
 
i had an old P 2 750 Hz (or something like that), had 128mb ram and only a 7-8gb hd. plus and integrated graphics card:o . oh it was the bomb:eek:
 
my nan has a pc with win 95 and a....500mb hardrive lol. and she asked me if i could load ms office on and i could only fit ms word on it
