Okay will it work if I moved my entire Adobe Photoshop from my C Drive to my


documents? I can't crop an image because "there isn't enough room in the scratchdisks"
I have tried everything and there is absolutelhy NO room on my C drive and that is the only drive I have.
So would photoshop still function if i put it in my documents from the C drive?
wait what do you mean breaak the program?
sorry I don't really understand this stuff very well.

You yourself say that you only have the one drive, C;... right? There is no place to 'move' stuff to. Your "My Documents' folder resides on the C; drive. You need to either delete a LOT of stuff, or add an additional storage drive. You are actually setting yourself up for a crash. You should allow a min. of 10% (20 is better!) of free space all the time for a drive. Temps files, recycling.. overhead. If windows gets crowded, something will crash. Not as if Windows needs an excuse. Buy an external USB drive and move your stuff there. 100-125 bucks will get ya a LOT of room.

You should consider freeing up some space on your harddrives, getting some more RAM (memory), and increasing the page file of your C drive (or another drive or partition) to 2.5GB.

To increase your pagefile, right click on "My Computer," select properties, goto the Advanced tab, select the Settings button under Performance, go to the Advanced tab and click Change under Virtual Memory, and set your C or other partition to no paging file. OK your way out and restart your computer. Then repeat these instructions but this time set the paging file for the harddrive with the most free space (or simply just your C drive) to 2560-2560 (minimum-maximum). OK your way out and restart again.

Move all your files to My Documents. Get a 500GB external hard drive (or as big as you can find and afford) and create a My Documents folder there and then move all your files over and delete all that are on you computer hard drive.

Remove any programs that you are not using to free up space to run your programs. Once you do this, don't store anymore files on your computer hard drive, instead drop them in the My Documents folder you created on your external hard drive. This will help keep your computer clean.

Oh, and I don't install anymore Microsoft updates unless I look at them first. Allowing updates to install automatically has rendered my CD useless (until I figured out how to fix it....I could not install ANYTHING) and if you go look you will see a trillion update installations. I am not convinced that these are all necessary security updates but rather updates that mess up the function of your computer....like the MAC commercials point out!

If you don't watch out your are going to crash and burn and you will loose all your files and programs so I would do this pretty soon as a backup measure as well as give you more space.
