  1. Start->Search

    Set the 'Look in:' box to your hard drive

    Set the 'When was it modified?' box to  something like "Last accessed 2/22/07 to 1/1/01"

    Also, set the 'What size is it?' box to something like "at least 100000KB"

    This will search for all files greater than 100MB that haven't been accessed in 6 months.

    Take any old files you no longer want and drag them to the trash.  Be sure to empty the trash when you are done by right-clicking on it and clicking "empty recycle bin".

    If you simply can't part with your data, you can always buy a cheap external hard drive.


  2. you mean delete?

    right click the file you want to delete.

    click the option delete.

    click yes for the confirmation.

    you can check the properties of the file to make sure it really is old and bound for the trashbin
