With no virus detected, C drive has lost memory down to 2% (367 MB ) 0f 14.22
GB using AMD 1001 Mhz processor. This loss has been gradual over last month.
History deleted, hard drive cleaned, registery checked, old files compressed.
Defrag log shows 20 Windows\installer files w/ 93 MB each, containing total
7807 frags. Anyone have any ideas how to regain hard drive memory ?

Re: C drive looseing memory

You might check your system restore settings, in Vista the default is 15%,
you can adjust it with vssadmin.exe. If that is the problem I suggest you
Google vssadmin, for more information. Oh yes, it must be run from the DOS
prompt with run as administrator option.

I don't know if the same thing applies to XP 64 as I don't use or have it.

You might try this tool named SpaceMonger (http://www.sixty-five.cc/sm/) to
in order to have a graphical view of your disk usage and maybe then pinpoint
what is causing it to be filled up.
