635 MB free space on C drive

Hi guys,

I recently acquired a legit copy of windows and i have SP2 installed. However, I end up only having 635 mb of space on C drive. I dunno if this is the forum. If not, mods please move?

I recently had to reinstall windows because of an infection. I reformatted the C drive during installation. Would that have anything to do with it?

Thanks guys!

 

What size is the hard drive?

 

i have a 160 gb Western digital Caviar that i partitioned into a 10 gb c and a 140 gb d drive.

 

If the drive is new, the install is fresh, and there's no data at stake, I'd do a format, repartition, and clean install and make sure the C: drive is at least 40 gigs--most here would make the two partitions of equal size. 10 gigs for XP with service packs, security software, and miscellaneous appurtenances is just not enough space, IMHO.

 

Ok thank you very much!
