My laptop, a dell d800 with 1gb of ram and 60gig hard drive on xp pro is acting kind of weird. It's the hard drive actually. When I check out how much space is left it says that there's 6gig free. I don't understand what's talking up all of the space. My itunes has 14.72gb of music on it so it can't be that. I've deleted all videos and although I've got lots of word and pdf files there's no way they're taking up almost 40gb of space. I don't want to reformat if at all possible because I've heard the windows backup tool is pretty poor and I risk losing my data. Even if I do back it up I don't know how to get my library back onto my laptop from an external hard drive without running into some sort of glitch. I defrag often, use crap cleaner, and all that stuff but no luck. Suggestions???
