| | 20gb file but where Hi everyone Im using a samsung NP-R40 laptop with C drive 50gb and a D drive with 50gb. My computer is running very slow and when it comes to using internet it seen's to just stop halfway through loading a page. Someone told me that if my C drive is full or has a lot of data on it that could cause the problem. So i set about reducing the files i have on my C drive by deleting old movies and music albams and got it down to 12gb. But my C drive is still showing me that i have over 40gb used when i right click on it and select properties. When i open c drive and check the properties of its content it is showing that im using just over 12gb so where can the other 30+gb be hiding. Regards Alan |
