I bought a new Acer desktop with Windows Vista and was dismayed when after only a few weeks I was getting messages that there was no more room. Yet my hard drive is 160 GB. How come?
It never occurred to me to check the "my computer" icon. When I did I realized that the hard drive is petitioned into two drives. All the programs and everything I was saving automatically went unto the C drive, which is very small. The D drive, where all the room is, had nothing there. That is the dumbest thing I ever heard of, especially since the computer is set up so that C is the default drive.
I feel sorry for the people who have an acer and have no techie knowledge at all (even less than I do). Having two drives is something they would have no clue about, and having to change drives to save content is not a newbie friendly thing either.
If anyone can tell me how to make it all one, I would love to know.
