Typical modern hard drives are in the tens of gigabytes, so it sounds like 
yours is more than 99% full.  You might want to consider adding another 
drive....
  But on the couple of systems I've seen that were this full, a huge amaount 
of the space turned out to be taken up by old items in the "Temp" folder.  
Depending on how your machine was set up, this may be C:\WINDOWS\TEMP.
  There is probably stuff in there that you no longer need -- maybe quite a 
*lot* of stuff you don't need.

  Also, make sure that you empty the recycle bin periodically.
