Windows XP --- Where has the disk space gone?

monster(藐视它)
I installed Window XP on a separate partition, say, drive C, with a space size of almost 3 GB. I have tried to install all the programs or save files on the other drives. However, I found that I quickly ran out of free disk space on Drive C. When I was installing some program ( on a drive other than C, of course), what usually happen was that the C drive would have some 1/3 or even half of the program size of disk space taken off. Even if no program was installed, the free space of Drive C still kept coming down. I also found that the "documents and settings" folder is growing especially fast. I often got the "low disk space" alert. How can I solve this?

    • XP安装完了就将近2GB，加上虚拟内存500MB以上。它的系统自动备份也非常占地方，取消方法：My computer 右键，属性，system restore，选中Turn of System Restore on all drives。 -heian(黑暗®-吐血痊愈中); 2002-10-3 {71} (#780365@0)
      另外IE的cache文件都在"documents and settings" 里面，调整cache的大小。
      • Thank you very much! By doing this, more than 400 MB of space was realeased. For me, the System Restore function is hardly useful. -monster(藐视它); 2002-10-3 (#780514@0)
        • 同样在我的电脑，属性，Advanced->Performance->Settings->Advanced->Virtual memory->Change你可以把虚拟内存的交换文件放在其他分区，这样还可以获得多的空间。 -heian(黑暗®-吐血痊愈中); 2002-10-3 (#780530@0)
          • I set it as 'system managed size'. How is it? -monster(藐视它); 2002-10-3 (#780536@0)
            • 如果你不熟悉就用系统设定的吧，这样比较省事。 -heian(黑暗®-吐血痊愈中); 2002-10-3 (#780556@0)
              • OK. Thanks a lot! You've been very helpful. -monster(藐视它); 2002-10-3 (#780562@0)
                • 不谢不谢 -heian(黑暗®-吐血痊愈中); 2002-10-3 (#780568@0)
