I am attempting to transfer all of the files form an NTSF 250 GB external drive to an empty FAT32 250 GB internal drive via USB.I keep getting an error message that says "Cannot copy (filename): There is not enough free disk space. Delete one or more files to free disk space, and then try again. To free space on the drive by deleting old or unnecessary files, click Disk Cleanup".

View 3 Replies View RelatedI don't get it. the more i go on, the more and more disk space seems to vanish into thin air. xp usually takes a couple of gigs up on the hard disk, right? maybe 5 gigs at the very most. i've got 8 gigs taken up by videos in one folder. the programs i've got installed are negligable. the program files folder is 500mb. and yet my disk only has 20 gigs spare on a 40 gig hard disk. i've looked in every folder on the hard disk and i simply can't find any folders with anything of any great size in it. i've defragged the hard drive.

The primary C drive has the OS on it and it is only about 14GB, and my entire disk is about 50GB, the unallocated space is about 34 GB. I have tried to expand the primary partition unsuccessfully. Do I have to reload the entire OS ? I do not have the origional disk to reload the OS. It is a sony PCG-CRT160 computer with 500 mb ram and approximately a 50 GB primary drive that was partitioned when I got it.

I made a disk clean up to partition D: and there was 3GB of system restore files!!! maybe coz i deleted 6GB earlier anyway i deleted the system restore files
Only NTFS partions can have files with file size more than 4GB..i hope theres nothing wrong with my windows or my hard disk..and i wanna know if theres a way to move that ISO image..thanx in advance.
Drive C total capacity is around 24GB, when selecting all files in C:, it shows 12GB used, but only 2GB is left in free space. What's wrong?
View 6 Replies View RelatedRecently ive been getting the yellow triangle icon with an ''!'' in it, saying that I have very low disk space. Ive noticed my computer has also been running slower than usual. Maybe half a year ago I came here with the same problem, and someone (forget the name, sorry) posted a link to a program somebody made that clears your disk space up for you. It deleted old unused files, and it worked great. You sort of just clicked on the link on the site, a box came up, and you checked off what you needed to be cleared, and then the program fixed it for you.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a dell Dimension 4600, which has given me so many problems throughout the years. When we got it, the thing ran great. This was a few years ago... A year or two ago the thing got a NASTY Virus, and ever since then it hasn't worked because of hardware and software problems. I pretty much decided to give up at that point and the thing has been sitting around collecting dust.My dad thought it was the memory, and so today I carted the computer up into my room, set it up and put in a new memory card. It didn't help, My computer goes in circles when trying to boot up, until the blue screen pops up.
It cannot boot from the hard drive, and I get the message "press F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility"
F2 takes me to the utility, but as far as I know I don't want to change anything here at the moment.
if I press F1 it pops up the same message.
So I tried Booting from the CD and Reinstalling from the CD. Neither worked and both of these result in the Blue screen of death. For the install, the blue screen would come up at the third bullet point which I believe is "preparing installation."
***STOP: 0x0000000A (0xCDCDCDCD, 0x00000002, 0x00000001, 0x807d600f)
WhenI continue the current upgrade I get "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
the Tech info is:
***STOP: 0x0000000A (0x0a130013, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x807d5ff9)
I am getting a few other blue screens but I don't know what the say, But as far as I know, everything I have tried has lead to some form of Blue Death screen. Any Ideas on how I can get this puppy to work?I also tried to boot from my Laptops CD but it didn't work so its not the CD that is the problem.
It says that TOTAL SIZE = 39 GB And Free Space = 5 GB Which means that the size of all files on C is 34 GB But when I select all files including Hidden files and Right Click> Properties, its size of all files is only 27 GB.I did clear recycle bin and disk defragmenter C, but still the same. So why is that?

"Drive C: Insufficient Free Disk Space, Need 15% free"
Last week i installed windows XP Pro on my desktop. It has a 250GB hard drive which has 1 partition (C drive only), NTFS offcourse. I did not format it while installing windows as it has lots of stuff in it. There's over 50GB free and i�ve been removing a lot of stuff from the hard drive to make up some space but in windows i get an error message that i don't have enough disk space, the disk cleanup utility runs cant free up space and i can not install or copy anything in the hard drive. I've noticed that when i deleted some file holding (or not) the shift key the free size goes lower although the files are being deleted from the hard disk.

View 2 Replies View RelatedLaptop has 4GB. I defragmented the C disk several times over the last couple of year. Now the used disk space has crept up to nearly that, leaving only 200-300MB at any one time. I have nothing unusual as far as programs go, and I do not have a media player or anything like that hooked up,
At 200-300MB, there is no ability to defragment. I use a CCleaner, and Eusing Registry Cleaner regularly. Wher
Computer has been really low on disk space for a long time. ATF Cleaner IT worked great, took off all temp files and such, all useless stuff that stays on your computer.
I've tried a disk cleanup that apears when space is low but it does pretty much nothing. I only have a 30G HD, but still, that cant possibly take it all up, I have only 19.3 mb left!
I kept my pc running over night and when I woke up the free space in my drive c(contains os) was 700kb. It had dropped from 8gb. I checked system restore I thought it might have made a backup but that was not the case. I did find though a bunch .sqm files in my c drive. I've heard they can be related to live messenger and operation flashpoint ( a game). I have flashpoints sequel and live messenger. I haven't used either in several days. I did defragment the drive one day before this occurred. Can someone please tell me where all that space has gone to?

2.0 ghz intel celaron . 256mgb ram. 40gb hard drive.all used to work great before the crash.
drive C: size is 19.6 GB. The free space keeps changing, which, PF usage is shown to be always upwards of 1.4 GB on the Task Manager. this is slowing down most other programs. I tried various 'cleanup' utilities and also did Virus/Malware scans, which turned up nothing. I also created an alternate Page file on another one of my big partitions, but this does not seem to have any effect. My startup is always slow, and so are application startups.
View 7 Replies View RelatedFor several months now, my home computer has been running on "low disk space." It would cause things to slow down or web pages to not load properly. We would free up space by removing programs or files and within a matter of hours it would all be full again. Eventually we got to the point of having 0 disk space. I have, once again freed up space by deleting programs and files that we did not need and that space has gradually been eaten up by something. Now, we are at a point where if we are online... lets say Facebook just for example... we can look at messages we have, write a new message, but when you try to submit said message the computer doesn't even act like you've clicked anything at all. We can't send e-mails, send messages, delete emails or messages... as a matter of fact, as I write this I am unsure that I will be able to submit it. I am also having trouble searching for things using "search" on my computer. The window opens as a blank window. When I try to open "help & support" it doesn't even attempt to open it. This computer is a Sony Vaio. Our internet connection is DSL. We are running Windows XP Home. I have continuously run clean disk and deleted browsing history in IE. (IE7, by the way).
