My computer is so messed up, all of a sudden I went from running pretty good,
(totally acceptable) to almost not running with 3% free space on my c drive I
have removed everything I can think to remove in add/remove progs and have
done disk cleanup and defrag (which said it cannot defrag LOTS OF files, some
700 mb) So I tried to restore my system and I got an error message about the
secuirty hive cannot find or start and its alternate is not available!!!! I
have not removed my pictures or my music because I am not sure how, do I send
them to the recycle bin? How do I permanatley remove these to help gain more
disk space. I relize I have asked a bunch of questions, but any help with any
of them IS SOOOO APPRECIATED THANK YOU

find the photos and songs.
highlight them.
press the delete button.
that should put them in the recycling bin.
you can then empty the recycling bin.
