I have 1GB of free space left in my harddrive and when I tried to save a file that was about 100k in size, a message appeared saying that my disk is full. Why?

Could this be the cause of the problem?

A week ago, I made a back-up copy of one of my CDs using Nero. I'm not very familiar with that program yet so I just read and followed the instructions on how to create one. In one of the steps, I unchecked Fast Copy (copies directly from the source drive to the recorder without saving the data first to the harddrive). So this means that, the files from the CD were copied to my harddrive right? So, are these the files that are taking so much space in my harddrive? If so, I want to delete them. But the problem is, I can't find them.

Someone please help.

by default ... the image file should be inside ur root directory with a filename of "image.nrg" ... pero by default eh nide-delete din yun ng Nero after mo mag-burn.

saka kung sabi sa properties ng HD mo eh may 1gb ka pang space eh ndi sa Nero ang prob mo.

try running scandisk? minsan nafi-fix nya yung error sa space free left sa HD mo after a bad shutdown

it would also be safe to delete most *.tmp files..? :)

Poten, what type of file are you saving? have you tried saving another type of file? probably the program that you were trying to save the file to is screwed. :p
