Hello Shane,

It is me once again.

I looked through my users folder and checked the volume of each folder. Individually it doesn't add up. It is as if there are some "hidden files" somewhere...any suggestions?

Thanks Shane.

I will check the users file and see what is there.
I have also been considering changing the drive and will look around here for a "local" solution.

Once again many thanks.

Hello Shane,

I have been having internet problems so I am not sure whether the previous posts I sent got through to you.

Briefly:
Windows Folder     15.4 GB
Users  Folder         12.9 GB
Programme Folder  3.4 GB

I ran disc clean up but only got 684 MB.

Hello Shane,

Attached is System info about this laptop:

HP 510 Notebook
OS Windows 7 Ultimate
Its an old laptop and old drive!
Funnily enough I don't have that much music and pics on the drive. I really am surprised that it has filled up so quickly. I have 76 MB in the music folder and 344 Mb in the pictures folder. I suspect that installing of updates is the culprit... but I am not sure...

Hello Shane,

My laptop has a capacity of 38 GB and it is nearly full. I have an external drive with about 200 GB free space. Is there anyway to create space on the C Drive by moving files to the external drive.  My laptop is a  an  HP 500 operating on Windows 7.

General Computer Support / Failed Proofing Tools Installation

« on: February 01, 2013, 04:18:01 am »

Hello Shane,

I speak and write German so I wanted to install German proofing tools on to my laptop. I downloaded ms 2007 proofing tools which also includes German. After unzipping the file and opening the German proofing tool file and unzipping that I was able to click on the install icon which started the process but stopped when it was not able to find a particular file. The details are in the screenshot I took of the error message.

Can you give me a tip as to how to find the file/solve the problem?

Thanks

Jaiye

...Shane you are the man! My sound is back!

Many thanks for your support... as a last resort I was thinking of downgrading back to XP but now I can stick to W7 with which I am pretty comfortable.

Thanks!

No windows update doesn't.

I have downloaded drivers from Internet and have tried a manual install by browsing and selecting the drivers folder. But the system is unable to install or find the driver...See attachments.

I need some help - I have a hp Compaq 500 originally running on xp. I upgraded to windows 7 and since then I have no sound. The sound icon on the taskbar does not have an "x" on it but I cant hear a thing.
Any suggestions?
