Ha ha,

I've done it!!!

It was the save and restore thing which was digesting my HD at a rate of knots but I found this site......

Is Vista Eating Up Your Hard Drive?

which gave me a quick fix.

It turns out that 39Gig of my hard drive was being saved for the restore function of Vista, how thoughtful!! anyway after following the instructions on the aforementioned site it has been lowered to 2Gig which I don't think is too unreasonable.

After running Tune Up Utilities again my hard drive now shows 210.74GB available instead of 184GB (I've put a bit more onto the computer today!!) as it stated before hand.

Well I hope that someone else gets some use from this link and that I'm, not just a rambling idiot that's drank a bottle of red wine!

Cheers,

Mat (hic).
