Running low on disk space

I have a Dell Inspiron 8600.   I had bought more memory for my laptop a little over a year ago to install Vista Home Premium 32 bit.  Before I installed it I had 33.7 GB.  I didn't notice untill here recently that  i've lost a lot of space on my disk C.  I already turned system restore off b/c I know that  takes up a lot of space. I also have moved all my  pictures, videos, music, and documents to my external hard drive.  Does anyone know what other files I dont need on my drive that I can move to my 2nd hard drive and delete from this one?

I have 5.11 GB left on my hard drive.  How do I clear the cache on my web browser?

I wouldn't turn off system restore completely. Is there a way to delete the older restore points and keep only the new ones?

 

Clear the cache on your web browser.

 

How much hard drive space do you have left?

Hi, Try this, Click on Tools, Then Internet Options, Then Click Delete in Browsing History, Then Click Delete All.

I  already  did  that.   I'm  thinking  I  might  have  some  hidden  XP  files  somewhere.  Where  do  I  go  on  my  computer  to  find  out  if  I  have  XP files  on  my computer?  If  I  can  find  any....  I  can  delete  those  from  this  drive  to  make  more  space  on  here  since  I  now  have  Vista.
