I have a new HP computer with Vista and have the dual core c and d drive.
It
says my d drive is 100 percent full (recovery drive) How do I fix this?
My
computer is only a month old and I've been getting window errors already
and
I can't go back to an earlier date for recovery either. I think I need to
do
a whole system recovery. It started to dump a lot of stuff into D drive
when
my computer started to act up. What should I do?

If the pc has a D: drive and it is called 'recovery' or similar and when
clicked on in explorer shows the default HP/Compaq 'This is the recovery
drive, do not alter it' message...

Then it is basically the hard drive version of your windows disk. There
should of been documentation that explains you should back this drive up in
case of any problems with the pc in the future. This drive allows you to
restore the pc back to its purchased state or to repair it in case of any
problems.

Although I dont have one, im fairly sure it was generally full anyway
because it was only meant to be used as a recovery drive and not a general
purpose drive. You may find you only actually have one hard drive of which
D: is a hidden partition.
