Presumably you've got a lot of images saved?
If so, burn them all onto a disk and delete everythign from your computer - should make a difference. Also, if you are taking your own photos and saving the, check the pixel size you are using. Unless you are a professional designer and photographer it is unlikely that you'll need anything more than 1500 px wide for a decent image, but many digital cameras are defaulted to massive pixel sizes. This then takes up lots of storage space.

What do you mean by 'factory image storage' ?

[trish432]

factory on my pc contains the necessary files for restoring my computer to factory settings, so be careful before deleting anything.
It might be something different on yours, but I would wait for someone with a bit more knowledge, to give you further advice.
I deleted factory 1 and factory 2 in a previous computer and when I put the restore disc in it said can`t restore because of missing or corrupted files.

trish,
that was what I was thinking myself , to me factory image = recovery partition but I could be wrong

where do i find the info for changing the pixel storage

thanks

if these images are useful for you .

you can write these images on the cd/dvd .

after burning the cd,

you may delete all the images from the computer.

so you get all the images in the cd and the data will be saved for future.
