ima running windows xp with 768 ram and the usual 2ghz pentium 4 processor. I have 2 harddrives, actually three harddrives one being in an enclosure running through usb. nevermind that drive. I got this one drive i am having a problem with. lets reffer to it as C:. that is teh drive with windows xp on it. I use D: for program files and c: has the common things, the os. Documents and unzipped files etc. etc. I calculated how much stuff i had on my harddrive one time while i was on the phone with dell. I calculated Roughly.. about 3 gig. Now this is a 14 gig harddrive so you'd ask why am i having problems with only 3 gig on it. Well -- its saying i only have 3 gig free. Now this was quite a few weeks ago. Now my computer is having a cardiac arrest once and a while and just completly slows down. i turned up the virtual memory but still no good. with this processor amd ram it should be mad fast. It's now saying i have less then 200 mb. i deleted stuff from teh harddrive and it makes it 176 mb. whewn i put stuff on it it makes it more. Its totally messed up. Any ideas. I feel that everything is reversed on this harddrive. you delete you are adding you add your deleting and its saying i only have free what i have on it. So any help is appreciated. thx.
