    No Space, No Thing
    « on: September 24, 2010, 05:39:21 AM »
    Hi all, only two days after I've anstalled a fresh OS in my 100 GB partition of C-- with a couple more essential programs, my partition was full. I know it shouldn't be, since I estimate the total of my setups not exceeding 25 GB, perhaps less. What went wrong and what should I do? Attached are the HiJack This log file as well as an image of My Computer. Thanks.
    P.S. The same day the problem started, I got an electrical shock when I pressed the power botton. Does this have anything to do with that?

      Thank you very much Linux 711. It was a Temp folder cluttered with some 77 GB of temporary files (after only 2 days of my fist use?) so I deleted them all and everything is normal right now. Unfortunately, TreeSize don't have an option to save a log file for me to post.
      Thanks also, harry 48, it's done.
      However, what's so wrong that 77 GB of temporary files attacked only in two days? And what should I do to prevent that in the future?
