If you can't find it anyway else, use diruse from the Windows Resource kit
such as:

diruse /s /m /q:10 /l /* c:\

When you run it from the command prompt and are in the c:\ directory, it
will create a log file listing every directory that is over 10MB in size.
You can change the size by modifying the command line after the q: .  I use
this on other servers as well to find "disk hogs".

Also, make sure your transaction logs are on a different drive than your
system partition.  Have your backups been failing recently?  If so your logs
could be growing and eating up space if they are going to the same drive as
your OS.

If it's not transaction logs, what's changed recently to take up space?  Why
are you getting into a low disk condition?  I would certainly want to know
that ASAP to ensure it doesn't happen again if at all possible.
