Hardrive full then nearly empty ???
Hi,
I am running XP but everynow and again C drive properties shows the drive to be over 90% full. When I reboot the drive goes down to less than 25 % full. Not sure whats going on but gmail seems to have something to do with it. Anybody got any ideas ???
Thanks
Rich

What makes you suspect G-mail?
Is this a new problem? Were things working OK previously? Any new hardware and or software?
If this is a new problem try a System Restore to a point prior to the problem:
start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore

Hi jephree
This is not a new problem and has been going on a while. It seems to happen when gmail notifier is active in the tray but may mean nothing.

Have you tried both Disk Cleanup and Disk Defragmenter via start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools

Hi,
Yes done that. I defrag and disk cleanup once a week, run AVG free edition, free Zonealarm and paid for Stopzilla.
Cheers

Check your Page File Size:
Right click My Computer then click Properties
Advanced > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Virtual memory > Change
Is this set to System Manage Size?
