You could delete old backups which are not needed any more.
You could buy a new external hard disk, they are pretty cheap these days.

Flash drives are pretty inexpensive also, they plug into your USB port. You can save programs to them you use rarely/occassionally, that you don't want to get rid of. Also, you may want to consider installing a second drive (if your computer has the room) to store data, etc. I usually use newegg.com to purchase my computer parts. Rates are good and sometimes they offer free shipping.

ok up date for the benefit of others i took the grand masters suggestion and
deleted the folders in my d drive i was leary to do this before posting this subject
because when i opened folder [ N360_BACKUP] IT was all written in computer language [all like code]

any way [ JUST DONT DELETE PC ANGEL] its a padlock icon on my d DRIVE

RECAP its running 1000% better and the pie chart is displayed 2/3rd's empty
as it was in the beginning

the pc will start storing info right away again i bet this is were the cop's get the info when they confiscate criminal's computers


i hope this helps any one with a slow PC
