Q.
I use a 1,8-GHz Intel Dual Core PC with an Intel D945GCL motherboard and an 80-GB hard drive (equally divided in four partitions) running a Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit operating system. My C: drive (the one with Vista) is almost full and whenever I shut down the computer and boot It again, the remaining memory decreases. Could this be a virus?
A.
Thanks for providing the details specs about your system. Have you run a virus scan? What was the result? A 80-GB hard drive divided In 4 equal partitions translates to a C-drive with 20 gigabytes. I wish you'd specified exactly how much the memory decreased by or the nature of Its reduction but I'd like to bring your notice to Microsoft's stated minimum requirements for operating Vista: it requires at least 15 gigabytes. So with a fully Installed version of Vista, add some extra space for the page file, system restore files, and hibernation file, Recycle Bin files, plus documents, I really don't think your 20 gigabytes Is enough to cut It. You'll need to Increase your boot partition's capacity to 30 GB at most.
