 Hi Phil,
 
Do not confuse "Memory" with "Disk capacity".
 
If you have as much free space on your C and D drive as you say, there
no problem with disk capaity.
 
Do you know how much physical memory you have?
 
George.

Subject: [access-uk] HD partition on an Acer Aspire 5920 


I,
 
I have an Acer Aspire 5920 laptop running Vista Home premium and Jaws
10.
 
When I bought it just over a year ago it said it had a 160gb hard
drive, it wasn't until I got it home that I realised this was split
into 2 drives, "Acer c" and "Data d".  
 
Over the past day I have been getting "not enough memory" messages
when I switch on and try and do things and after a while jaws stops
working - presumably as it thinks it doesn't have enough memory to run
it and other applications.
 
Anyway I've done some cleaning up tonight, taken off some progs I
don't need etc etc and the "Acer c" drive says it's got 7gb free.
 
I have looked at the "Data D" drive which has over 60gb free.
 
I'm wondering what else I can do to clear up more memory?
 
Is there a way of changing default settings so downloaded music, files
etc are saved on the "data" and not C drive - only issue being my user
profile wants to save things on the "Acer c£ drive.
 
Do I need to consider reformatting the hd to remove the partition
altogether?
 
is this something others have come across with this type of laptop?
 
All suggestions welcome...within reason!
 
Cheers,
 
Phil
