Your netbook's drive C is one of its most important parts. By default, your operating system operates from your netbook's drive C. Very important program files are found on this drive. Ideally, you should have 30% of your disk drive free at all times for optimal performance, i.e., fast loading of applications, etc. If you max out your drive C space, your system will crash.
Here are some tips on managing your drive C and how you can free up some space on your netbook. These tips are specific to Windows XP users.
1. Delete Temporary Internet Files
Temporary internet files are cookies, html documents that have been saved on your hard drive. Windows XP, by default, sets the limit on temporary internet files at 200MB. You have the option of lowering the limit but delete the existing temporary files first. To do so, open Internet Explorer, click Tools, then move down to the bottom where it says Internet Options. You will see the Temporary internet files label on the second box. Click Delete Cookies and Delete Files. To lower the space allocation for temporary internet files on your netbook, click on Settings (next to the Delete Files button), then set the space allocation to 50MB.
2. Uninstall unnecessary programs
Again by default, Microsoft Windows XP comes with several programs that you won't really need. Depending on the netbook manufacturer, these include Adobe Reader 7.0, Compatibility Pack, MS SQL, MS Visual Ctt, Windows Live Installer, Windows Live Mail, Windows Live Messenger, Windows Live Photo Gallery, Windows Live Sign In Assistant, Windows Live Toolbar, Windows Live Writer, and Windows Media Encoder. To uninstall them, select Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel. Select the program you want to remove and then click Remove.
3. Compress your hard drive
To compress your hard drive, go to my computer, then right click on your drive C. Click on properties. Click on the box Compress drive to save disk space. Click OK.
