    WTF? it says I have 35.9 GB of 37 GB USED! WTF?!?!?! (on my c drive)

    What is hogging all my memory? I used to have 1 256 MB stick, now I have 2 512 Sticks. My photoshop won't open, because it says ''not enough memory''. WTF?!?! plus, my computer is only reading ONE of the 2 512 sticks. How can I get it so it reads both?

    My harddrive is 60 GB. I just got a 120 GB 8 MB cache hd, but is yet to be installed (ima do that tomarrow)

    Can any one help me?!?! :(

    PS: A HEFTY REWARD IS OFFERED TO THE SMART DUDE WHO FIGURES IT OUT!

    PPS don't say disk defragment...

    You want to reformat, and you have 2 hard drives. Why dont you just install a clean OS onto the second one, the 120 gig hard drive, and then copy over what you need from the old one. Then you can reformat the old one within windows, which is always easier if you dont know exactly what all those stupid options are in Fdisk.

    Another reason to install on the second wtihout clearing the first is if you run into a driver problem that you didnt expect. If you have a second computer, then you dont have to worry about this, but if this is your only way to get onto the internet, and you remove it without all your critical drivers, you could be in trouble.

    That may be as tricky as burning everything to a CD if you arent sure how to set one or the other as the master drive, but with BIOS settings you can choose which one boots and everything, its pretty simple. I do that bout once every 4 5 months.

    @ Zhent:

    O_O FDisk is not hard if you just read the sh|t... It's easy as Installing Windows 3.1...
