One of the better ways(IMO) to find where all your space has gone is right-click->properties on every folder in your main drive. Let it finish counting. Look at how large each is.

... Cos if it isn't horiffically time consuming, it's not worth doing, right?

Anyway, I found out the problem. Needless to say, it had to do with the school, again. C-nts.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

Anyway, reason internal>external: SATA cables rock. Fastest transfer until USB 3.0; or so I heard.


Except for external SATA.
Isn't SSD is faster?

May I suggest you install CCleaner and Windirstat from download.com

CCleaner gets rid of temp files safely, and Windirstat basically gives you a graphical representation of your Harddrive. Biggest blocks being the biggest files. Its really pretty and very handy.

This program is great. I used it and I found 60~gigs of video that some screen saver my mom put on downloaded over the course of a year or so.

What if you didn't have any genitals, couldn't you just go naked as a dude (because showing your nipples is okay)?
What if monkeys created civilizations on the moon?

It was from electric sheep which was very pretty, and I would have kept it if I could have figured out how to keep the video from being saved
