Alright i have a couple problems mostly with space.
Alright, so here's a screen shot of all the things I have on it.
The ones that are circled are the ones I use.









I don't know what the last ones are...neither or the spywares work..
is there anything I should do ? I have 1.18 GB out of 18.6 GB
Thank you for helping me. Every suggestion counts..unless you tell me
to go to geeksquad ...I have that as a secondary resource. I need to
know what i can delete and what I shouldn't delete if possible.

* another thing is my laptop has stopped charging. I don't know
why but it has. It stays on 0-5% and never goes higher. If my
cord comes out i have EXACTLY two seconds to place it back in
or it shuts down and then it takes forever to come back up. Can
anyone help me ? I have an IBM thinkpad and i have Windows 2000

The bottom 20 look like updates you probably shouldn't touch those. All and all there isn't much you can do, most of those programs you have installed are ether needed or wouldn't make much of a difference space wise if you did remove them. I think the problem hear is that your hard drive is only 18 GB. If you want to spend some money "a lot less than the geek squad would charge" newegg has some good deals on hard drives. http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCateg...op-Hard-Drives

You might not want to get anything over 120 GB Iv heard somethings about Windows 2000 and large hard drives not liking each other


As for your battery It could be many things the three most likely
1. Charger is broken ... can test with another computer or a voltage reader.
2. Battery is bad ... can test with another charger or you can see if its holding a charge with a voltage reader
3. Some setting on your comuter is not allowing the battery to charge
