Guys I Hav a 40 gb hard disk full of nothin:S lol
No software installed except microsoft office and adobe photoshop.
My Os is taking like 35 GB:S mostly winsxs folder(18 gb)
I removed the restore points a while ago.
I removed the temp sp1 files.

Now i hav a full hard disk can't update my os can't do nothing except
browsing the internet lol I feel like I'm using knoppix.

What can I do in order to get back a normal pc :S
All my pc specifications are well tuned for nothin.

I am having the same problem.

I heard somewhere that Winsxs which means Windows Side by Side stores a
copy of all the drivers, the problem is that it keeps a copy of all the
available versions of the same driver for use by different software,
which is why it occupies a lot of space.

It happens mainly when you have installed and uninstalled lot of
softwares.

This is a new feature in Windows Vista, in XP it was there, but didn't
occupied this much space. If you try to delete it or portion of it than
your software or OS may stop working as it should.

I have tried to find out a solution to this but there is no feasible
solution to this right now, the last way is to format your hard drive!

The solution is fairly obvious. A 40gb partition for Vista is clearly not
enough. The OS requires a partition size of at least 60gb, and 80gb if one
installs a few programs and still wants Vista to have space for general
breathing and expansion..

Hello, my name is HASAN:

You can do like this; buy a hard disk and install it, then go to the
Convtrol Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Managment - Disk
Management, and convert both disks to dynamic disks, so you can extend the
partition over the two disks, all that by right-click the first disk and
choose Convert to Dynamic Disk and then the second one ... the wizards
windows should tell you how, since I can't sort the details here. And you
can search for these things in the help center of Windows XP (that center is
my friend, say hi to him please, it helped me a lot) and in the MSDN:
msdn.microsoft.com

Good luck
