yeah...uhh that is way more than u need, u can have like 200mb free and it will still run fine. 7gb is actually pretty good. my 40gb has like 26gbfree , and ill probably never fill it up lol.
but the actual windows partition is only 3 gb left.

was that an 80 gig in the pic you posted or just an 80gig partition on a larger drive?
because if it was an 80gig, i woulda thought you'd lose more then just .5 gigs, their never really 80gigs, but most are like 75 or so...

You are talking about hard drive space, right?

If you are, then it is best to leave 10% free.

plus, anything below 10% and you get that stupid low disk space popup

easy solution: keep your buddy list short, and tell your less important contacts that you don&#39;t "do" instant messaging. ;)

Ok. I don&#39;t do instant messaging. ;)


Kidding aside, I really don&#39;t do instant messaging. Well I do have skype installed for long distance phone calls with family.

Im pop ups? Hah, only if people IM you.

And i know that with the latest IM, you can just set up an away all the time, and to where it does open up new windows, it keeps them hidden till u use them.
