You will get some space back if you move all the backup files created with= =20 MSWindows updates out of C:\ (but not the index which is needed to be able = to=20 update it properly). If space is running out fast, then you may have a=20 corrupt page file. Delete it and move it to another drive/partition. =46inally, clear all cruft in /temp directory (somewhere under local settin= gs)=20 for each user. If you have another drive, move all his data out of C:\ then defrag and=20 shrink the partition a bit, create new partition(s) and install Linux! ;-) =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart2193234.WeJigbyfKX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAk6P9fwACgkQVTDTR3kpaLZASwCgt+tq1H6nQQloMIJqs3+8+/nF b3gAoMQGgMTpBLPIvYg58OHieEy/IXOk =Ls4F -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2193234.WeJigbyfKX--
