    Low Disk Space on system drive

    My "C" drive which is my windows partition is nearly full but I have about 8 gb of free space on another partition on the same Hard Disk. I also have a second 13 gb installed and functioning. My question, will my system continue operate properly and effectively even though my "C" drive is totally full? Will my system crash when my system partition is completely full?

    In windows 98 and above you can move the swapfile to another drive. You can also move the temporary internet files to another drive. Doing those two things should keep the message from coming up for now. Of course, filling up the drive with other stuff will eventually bring back low disk space.
    All the best!

    Hey!

    i suggest you to stop using the PC until you do something about it first. Otherwise a full hd that crashes can produce corrupted file system that are very difficult to recover.
    All the best!

    Hey!
    I've never seen a drive completely full. But I can assure you that you will start having problems before that point. When the free space gets down to the point that your swap file virtual memory starts shrinking, the system will probably slow to a crawl and most likely crash shortly after.

    There is only one solution ,to this issue you have to delete some data/ file ,
    Run > temp ( delete all temporay files )
    Run > %temp% ( delete all temporay files )
    Run > prefetch ( delete all temporay files )

    This will surelly create almost 2 GB of data on your harddisk space on your computer .
