Hello all knowledgeable ones
Perhaps someone can help me with a small problem I seem to have. I am using a Sony Vaio laptop with a 40GB HD which iI believe is partitioned 13GB/17GB with a further 7gb hidden system resore section. The C drive is the 13GB and is fairly full but the last time I checked it had about 3-4GB spare. I have been using the D partition as the main workhorse drive ie. that is where I load any new progs etc. However My "My Documents" folder was becoming quite large and so I moved it to the D drive. I now have an old folder on the D drive which I cannot delete - I keep getting the message that the folder is being used by another prog or access denied if I try to rename it but the folder is empty. I also tried to defrag the C drive but found that it only had 715mb spare space but when I looked at the properties of the folders in the C drive they added up to just over 8GB so there is about 4-5BG missing? Does anyone have any ideas please?
Thanks
