Good morning!
I have a problem that give me headache. my hardisk is running out of space. it's capacity is about 19 GB and i think that enough for my Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 PC. While recking my brain toward the problem, i notice that the Windows foler in C: is too big, about 6.4 GB.! It's that reasonable, it's it? Uninstalling some programs is not my choice as i need all the program for my work. It's something can I do? of course i have done disk cleanup.

Since the Windows folder should only take a couple of gigabytes in a typical installation, you need to identify which folder is consuming the space and narrow it down. Just check properties of each folder in Windows until you find a really big one. Then enter the folder and repeat the process for any sub-folders. You might also try something like SpaceMonger to automate the process of looking for the big folder.
