Hello again,
I have already removed all programs I dare from Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel and I could see space being freed up there. Where I did not see any space recovery was when I went into my computer WINNT and deleted most of the Uninstall folders such as
$NtUninstallKB823980$. These files did not show up in Add/Remove Programs.
My computer, C drive, properties is where it is showing I have less than 200 MB hard drive space available. And as mentioned before, my recycle bin has been emptied.
I am truly at a loss and greatly fear a hard drive crash.
Thanks for all help that has been provided thus far and I hope to receive further suggestions.
Diane
