Hey, My C drive seems to be full but im not sure what its full with is only a 60GB SSD, but i keep as much as i can on my 2 x 500GB HDD. i have done all the basic stuff like disc clean up delete all unnecessary files ect.

Catch? im not sure what that is but is that what could be filling it up?? or is ther a better way of dealing with this other than wiping it lol
 
Hi

You have not said what version of windows?
How much ram?
Swap file and hibernation file can use a lot of free space?
(Amount of ram for each)
How much space freed up by disk cleanup?

Was there any windows.old and did disk cleanup remove it?

Is 'my documents' folder on c: (SSD) or d: hard drive?

There are a number of utilities which tell you how much space each folder & file take up. This may give you some clues
