Sony VAIO Laptop

My niece has just been round to download some photos we took at her birthday party last night but it appears her Hard Drive is full... I didn't have time to investigate much, but it seems the HDD is divided in to two 40 Gb partitions, "C" & "D". C is virtually full, whilst D is empty. We tried selecting D and were able to copy the photos to it, but there is no normal menu tree - "My Documents" >> "My Pictures" etc. I then tried opening C and get the "Warning Hidden Files / Folders" message. My query is how would this be organised? I assumed that operating system files, and maybe programmes would be on C, and all documents on D. In which case why would it be divided equally? Could someone shed any light on this? I've already told her to get an external drive, but if there is still 40Gb available it would be handy to use it.

Thanks, TFP.
