hi,
i think that a older version of windows used to be installed on my computer (windows 2000) because there is files that say windows 2000 and stuff in them and im running windows xp. and i don't want to lose all of my drivers either because i have a laptop. i think it is taking up room on my hard drive. i don't want to formate my hard drive but if i have to is there a way to remove everything except my operating system because i don't have an operating system disk to re-install windows on it. and i don't want to go out and buy a new OS disk

1.Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/ Show hidden system files.
2 If you have XP as OS ,
is it named windows 000 ?
the file windows2000 is inoperative.
and you can shift it to another directory/
review and delete most of the files.
Compare the application files/Folders in
both I would rather retain system files.
Para two:
download Unknown Devices from
http://www.zhangduo.com/udi.html
Check the drivers required for your hardware/
back up the drivers.
Para three: If you have updated XP you can
safely delete copy to a CD
UpdateUninstall files( sometimes in a different color) .
WARNING except $hf mig$.
I have saved about 600Mb of disk space in C:

This is more of an idea than an answer. You could try restoring your computer to a really early date, u could try de fraging your computer because this may sort the files out. You could try getting somthing called smartfixfraud (just copy and paste that word in google n download it and read the readme to work it) this also may fix the problems automaticaly if all this fails then back up your drive onto something eg: external hard drive or other computer, and re format your computer. then put the backed up files onto your computer. this will able you too choose wat u loose and wat u dont :) hope this helped in any way

On a Mac, shift/administration/3 takes a image of the show. in case you press shift/administration/4, you could click and drag over the area you choose for; the image is taken once you launch the mouse button.
