Hi I'm back - it is the memory that is saying 83% full not the disk space.

My newish laptop is running really slowly so I was wondering if that had something to do with it!!

Thanks for clarifying. Since you have 1Gb of RAM and VISTA I doubt there is a memory problem. Any large(ish) program can easily use that amount of memory while in use.
For perspective, I am running XP with 1 Gb RAM and I have 60% memory useage. VISTA is much more memory hungry than XP.

Good point. I've got a 3 year old laptop and it's got 2gb of ram.
