If that is the case, it is not a memory problem you have. It is a low 
space problem. That requires cleaning out the drive, removing or moving 
applications to other drives until there is enough space.

 From then on, avoid saving stuff on drive C: or adjust partition sizes 
with partition magic, or replace the drive with a bigger one!
