you could buy an external hard drive or compress your drive.





clean out temp files.





delete programs not needed.





try running a tune-up program, like Tune-Up Utilities, it gives a trial.

Reply:Go to My Computer, select your drive and right click on it. Select properties, on the pop up window you will see 2 boxes at the bottom of it, check the box which says "compress drive to save space", click apply and then OK. By this way you will have good amount of free space. Also there are programs running in background, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to activate your task manager, check the processes running list. remove unwanted programs. NOTE: If you are not sure, what this program is, go to internet like yahoo engine and in the search bar type the file name same as on your task manager list, it will give you details and importance of that program.


This way you will clear huge amount of memory.


Hope this will help you out.
