My computer is a liitle ancient ( but then so am I ) it is running on Windows XP & I am quite happy with it the only problem I have is as follows,>>> the hard drive is partioned & is >> Disc C: Capacity 15.0 GB, used space 14.9 GB ( holding all Windows working files to run computer)
Disc D: capacity 134 GB, Used space 56.8 GB with free space of 77.1 GB. I am conststantly receiving a popup message saying '' you are running very low on disc space on Disc C:'' My question therefore is, is it possible to make the partitioning of Disc C: larger? I have already tried copying folders from C: to D: without success ( I get messages saying '' you cannot copy or move the contents of this folder'') Hope you can help with this problem. Ron.
Is your My documents folder (and those of any other users) on the C: drive ? If so you can have XP move them to your D: drive and free up the space on your C: drive.
Be very careful when resizing partitions - it is very easy to destroy data. Make sure all your stuff's backed up first - it's not really a DIY job - if you're happy to lose all your data, and start afresh with an empty PC, go ahead - otherwise, get some expert help - it's beyond the scope of answerbank. (If you live in coastal East Yorkshire, I would be prepared to help)
Thanks very much for your answers, Huderon, it would appear that only Windows technical files are there. koster, have looked at link & in view of Vagrant's warning I think I must seek further advice before I do anything. Ron.
