Hello

Could somebody help me please, I have a 9 month old lap top with a hard drive off 144 gb and it says hat I only have 53 gb left, I just cant see what i have used 99gb on, I have i tunes ,photos etc but is there anyway I can check to see what is using all the space.

    oh dear, try running disk clean up (start/all programs/accessories/system tools/)
    empty recycle bin, see if that helps
    If not you have possibly backed up to the same hdd, not a good idea what backup software did you use?
