windows vista problem

if anyone ever has a proble with randomly losing hardrive space on vista just let me know, i had this problem an managed to rectify it

Vista seems to work fine for me so far....Vista is L33T

Vista has that problem with the Internet, make sure to delete your Internet records,
I.E.--- Browsing History, Temporary Internet Files, Etc.

God knows wat u have on UR Temp Files Ollie......Efuckt.com? LOL

yeah its more then just the temp files, they have this ghost back up as such which can take up a wooping 15% of the hardrive, what you do to stop it is go start>accesories>system tools>disk cleanup> scan whatever hardrive is causing the problem> then when thats done on the next window there should be a tab saying more options>click on it> then click on the system restore and ghost files> clean them up>then once there deleted click cancel> now see how much space you have gained

on top of that to stop system restore go on my computer>system properties>system protection>then you should see your drives in a window, most likely with a tick next to it>to turn system restore off just uncheack it then apply then ok. then your all sorted.

i thought there was a virus or something causing it but i eventually found out the problem, my hardrive got down to 317gb(its spose to be a 500g but says the maximum is 455gb an well upon the first turn on of the comp i recall it saying 405gb) an i could only account for 40gb, after cleared the ghost files i had a wooping 375gb an after turning off system restore i had 386gb. problem officaily solved

o right k, i personally think vista is really goo im well happy with it

Vista is good, but XP is easier to use.

Not give it a chance yet, I hate where shutdown is that's one thing that pisses me off. Might just make a bat file or something and try to get the hang of it. Gonna get a new pc using my bro's atm and it's a bit sucky lol

Windows 95...

Well it had vista on it but I put xp on instead. I think 95 is good, now I really want one of those new gadgets like the spectrum
