5GB of System partition is not enough.
my 5gb C: partition is already full (only a few hundred megs left). I used to use partition magic to solve the problem on my windows98 box.
But when I read the most recent version's specs it says that:
"PartitionMagic does not support Windows NT Server or Windows 2000 Servers."
If I cannot find a solution I'll need to back-up my data, format my drives and repartition them, re-install a brand new system, install a new service pack, install .net framework, then install the patches...
That will take ages to complete!
As a side note, I install all my program files in another drive (to F:\Program Files) so that they do not eat system partition's space.
So the 5gig data mainly belongs to MS-specific "Application Data"
That's because windows insists on putting its application stuff under C:\documents and settings\my profile folder\ regardless of where the actual program setup is installed. That's annoying.
And don't get me started about the huge mess under C:\WINNT which is around 1+ gig. Why on earth does an operating system need over one billion bytes of data to run properly?
