Hi,
Something pretty strange is happening to my laptop.
It has a pretty small HD that is devided in two partions: Primary 2.5 Gb for system, secondary 6,x Gb for appz, data and other stuff.
I tried to install SP1 today, but I all of the sudden I lacked the free space needed... I was pretty surprised coz My Docs folder is located on D: and I cleaned up my system few days ago.
Apparently I had only 189 Mb left on my HD.
I did this:
* I disabled System Restore (gained 7 Mb although 200 was reserved)
* I checked the paging file location (D
* I disabled Hibernation (Gained 197 Mb)
* I moved Temporary Internet files from C: to D:
* I uninstalled unnecessary junk.
* I lowered the space reserved for recycle bin.
* Performed a chkdsk
But here it is: when I add the sizes of Program Files, Windows, Documents and Settings, hiberf*.sys, and the protected system folders I get 1.8 - 1.9 Gb...
Where are the other 500 - 600 Mb? Am I overlooking something here?
Is there a way to store the hibernation file in a specified location? Like D: and not C:?
