wat u have a 9.8 gig HD? thats so small! i suggest that u increase your hard drive that might actually speed up your computer.

windows Xp does take up a lot of room on your hard drive and that is perfectly normal. i don't think you could actually make it smaller unless u delete some unneccessary files.

You should really look into getting a new HD... 120gb ones are down to ~$140 now...

You think that a 9.8gb HD is small. I have a 1.62gb HD that was Win XP on it, and another HD that is 6gb that is also running XP
