You can't move anything from C: to D: because D: is where your recovery files are kept and it'a a protected area.
How big is your hard drive? If you don't know, click on computer, then look at C: It will say how much free space you have and the total size of the drive.
Do you have a lot of games downloaded? I'm trying to think of items that would fill up a hard drive, and you've already said you don't have pictures or files. So games? How about music? Or movies?
Don't delete anything unless you know what it is and are absolutely sure it's something youu don't use. If you're not sure post the items name and we can help.
