What do you have installed? Right now, Vista Business 64 is taking roughly half a 50GB partition, and thats with some basic things installed to the C:. All my games, office apps, etc, are all installed on other volumes.

Did you install absolutely every part of Vista or something? My Windows folder is 8.5gb. Total hard drive usage on the drive, which includes all installed programs, is only 32gb.

I think you guys misunderstood me it was a fresh install. The hard drive only has the OS installed. When i go to computer there is only 3gb left on a roughly 70 gb hard drive. Is this correct someone knowledgeable please respond.

wow, something would seem to be wrong for only 3gb to be left, you should have much more free space.

you could use one of these utils to determine which dir is taking up all your space
