My laptop performance has slowed considerably from when it was new.
Recently with some good advice I've been able to improve it's performance using
relatively simple fixes e.g CCleaner, Defrag, DiskCheck & Registry fixes.

During my quest for improved performance I've noticed that my
70Gb of HD is split between two 35Gb HD's ( ACER C: & ACERDATA D: )
Nothing ever seems to be used on my D:/ as there is always 99%
available, is it possible to take some of this 35Gb which doesn't ever
appear to be used and give it to my C:/ ???

I'm a relative novice at all this and this is my first laptop, I'm hoping
that if i split the total memory more in favour of my c:/ that maybe
i'll get better/faster performance ???

Any advice would be appreciated frown

a programme called partition magic should do this for you really easily smile not much else i can add other than it will resize the drives on the fly for you

Got my hands on Norton Symantec Partition Magic and have
solved my little problem by moving the partition between
my c: and d: drives. Now i've got bags of space on my c:/

Thanks very much to nemesis_tfc for his great advice big grin
