Go to your start menu, then click accesories, and then find the system tools folder, then the disk clean up. Do that.
then In the same system tools folder, do the disk defragment.
All that should help compress all the files in your hard drive and free up alot of space.
I hope this helped.
Good Luck!

Try seatching files for 100 mb in size that might need to be deleted. Go to C drive and search forfiles over 100000 bytes in size. This way I was able to free up like 5GB.
Make sure when deleting dound files that they are not used by ahything.

if your hard drive is partitioned that 20 GB is probably for the system restore and/or diagnostics if thats the case there isn't anything you can or should do about it
