How do I check the size of my HDD?

Just an observation - you should have an option to burn a recovery disk. Make sure you do this - if your system "dies" because of some virus or something (or you just want to clean it up at a future date) then you can restore from the recovery partition. If your hard disk dies, you'll have to replace it and then you'll need to use the recovery disk to re-store back to to factory condition.
Edit: Just seen post from Gunjack on another thread and he suggests making two copies of the disk - which is spot on (sorry I forgot). Put one disk where you'll lose it and keep the second one safe!Never let it get you down... unless it really is as bad as it seems.0 -
