    well my pc has..
    246 Mb of ram
    with 69 gb
    i have about 20 gb left

    and there are bunch of crap inside my "C:Documents and Settings/Owner/Local Settings/Temp" folder
    which takes up soo much space, im not sure whether to leave them or delete them. i don't even know what to delete.

    you have 20 gigs left, you're fine, start worrying when you have like 2gigs left. akso, HDDS are cheap, you can buy a 40 gig hD on sale for like 20$ just for storage

    Clearing your temp folder should be fine..

    10 gb is way too much...Try taking it out in pieces it'll take too long all at once..

    Try downloading PerfectDisk and Ccleaner. That should help clear out some junk..

    Once you've deleted all your temp files. Defrag your HD not only will it organize all your system files, but at times that free's up space.

    youve got plenty of space but if you are worried run disk cleanup. I would'nt use the windows defrag as its not efficient, third-party programs are better.
    try out Advanced System Optimizer, its the best defrag program around.
