Just pop in the Windows Restore disk, it should allow you to 'Format' the Drives, which deletes everything on them, and automatically reinstalls the OS.
Reply:Your operating system is also on the C drive. Deleting everything will also remove the operating system.


You might have a worm type virus using up the space.
Reply:if you have your original OS cd, then do the install and it will prompt you to "format"





you may as well buy a new drive, they are really cheap, then do the same thing, them you can always plug in your old drive when you want old files.
Reply:1]go to start%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;all programs%26gt;%26gt;accessories%26gt;%26gt;system tools%26gt;%26gt;disk cleanup


2} uninstall unwanted programs from start%26gt;%26gt;control panel%26gt;%26gt;add/remove programs


dont delete evryhting it will cause instability...go ahead and find wht is taking much of ur cpace...check in my document or check in program folder and delete them
Reply:If you delete the contents of the hard drive by reformatting or other means, you will also lose the operating system which will render your computer unbootable. A good option is to get a cheap external hard drive and move some of your stuff to that, freeing up space on your main drive.
