That is Keith, if you still have the discs. I unfortunately, don't.

Lance. Go to "programs and features" in your control panel. That will show you a list of what you have on the disk.
If you see some of your movies just click on them and if it askes if your sure you want to delete. Hit yes.

They wouldn't free up much space if you removed them so I'd just keep them. There's a free disk analyser which can show you the big files/folders on your system, unfortunately I can't remember what it is called - leave it with me Lance.

Have you got any videos on there Lance - they take up lots of space. Why not buy an external hard drive to keep all your photos and films on? I use one and it leaves me with lots more space on my computer. I also back up most of my important pictures to places like FB so if I have a fatal blow up I can always retrieve them.

Also sign up for Dropbox - it's absolutely brilliant. You can set it up to automatically upload a copy of photos you add to you computer - and - wait for this - ***nerd alert*** set up your iphone/ipad so that every time you take a photo or video on it, it automatically copies it to your Dropbox account in the clouds (or if you are worried about data usage will do it the minute you are wifi connected, even if that is days later.

I used to permanently have around 1 Gb of photos and videos on my iPhone, now I keep them deleted and have the space instead   :)

And just for you Stoop it's free for 2GB   ;)

Got one Keith but I store my iphone pics on their cloud. They automatically get saved anyway but I do like the dropbox idea. Must check it out as I don't think I use it as much as I should.
