Hi Tanya The C: drive is the system drive and holds all temporary files and by default and memory swap file. If you are saving yor images to it then it will very quickly fill up. The reason for partitioning a drive into two or more logical drives is to keep the data separate, so if I were you

i don't know who configured your computer, but i can't imagine a restore drive being more than about 5 or 10 GB. 60 GB is ridiculous. it says 90% free, so it is even more ridiculous. take the computer to someone that has and knows how to use the current version of Partition Magic and have them
