I only have 27GB left on my 80GB HD and I only have a 2GB game and around 10 100mb programs. I have a folder in my Documents & Settings called Local Settings which is around 14 gb. Does anyone know how I make that smaller?

Consider getting a second hard drive, external ones can be plug & play and very easy to use .

I wouldn't delete the whole local settings folder but I do clear out the temp folder that is inside the local settings folder.
