After doing a system recovery on my computer the storage space seems to be almost all the way used up. This computer contains Vista Home Premium in the hard drive. What can I do?

Thank you.
I previously had a problem on my Gateway Laptop Computer - Intel Core2 Duo Centrino, that came pre-installed with Windows Vista Home Premium, which I could not fix. I had to do a System Recovery using the on-screen program and did not back up any of my files, in attempt to clear out everything that I had on the computer. After I completed this process, I set up my desktop and internet, and started over. When reviewing my Hard Disk Drives on my "Computer" menu, I notice that my
C: Drive is almost all the way full (8.55 GB free of 139 GB).
Although I downloaded a few programs and set up my Internet Security, I am sure I did not install anything large enough to use up almost all of the computers storage space for programs and files. By doing the System Recovery I thought that it would erase everything so that my computer would be back to it's factory condition. Could my previous files still be in the computer? After searching this forum, I did not find any information on the specific question that convinsed me of the soultion, or a course of action. Can anyone help me?

You should have 2 partitions, one of them being the Recovery partition:
approx 8.5G.
Contact Gateway.
