Running out of HD Space?

Check out your DrWatson log:

Mine was 500 megabytes.

Thanks for the humor! I always feel depressed and need a lift on Sunday. My hard drive isn't huge (300 GB), but I can delete a single game I'm not playing and recover something like 4 times that much space.

My Doctor Watson log is less than 2 MB. If your log file is 500 MB, you have some lousy software running on your system. Check Event Viewer and dump some of the trash responsible.

Well, not everyone has drives that large and they may have had what I had, continuous errors at different points with different games that accumulated a LOT of DrWatson log data.

Not knowing about the growth potential means they might overlook that.

Glad you got a laugh. Hope someone gets some help from it also.

Dear Mr. Fixit:

Lately, I've been having problems with the brakes on my car. Every time I drive through the back wall of my garage, dust and debris gets all over the place. Lately, my vacuum cleaner doesn't seem to pick up this mess very well. Should I change the bag?
