    Again, is swap file on c? How big is it? Make it fixed @2048/2048

    Do you hibernate? If not, disable hibernation in power options and administraive tools/services and remove the Hiberfil file from the "C" drive (HUGE file),,,

    Move Internet temp to another volume...

    Do the system restore check like i suggested...this one is probably the one causing constant loss of HD space...

    All this will take you maybe 10 minutes, and depending on how things sort out, you should get a lot of extra space for that drive....

    I can flat out guarantee you will find significant HD space...and it leaves you time to have a beer and enjoy your extra space, oh, and report back when done...

    Laterzzzzz...............
