If I were you...first, I would buy another drive. You are going to end
up needing it in the long run anyways.

Now...that aside...

If you are that low on drive space, when you capture your video,
rather than capturing everything, capture as you go. What I mean is
that you should watch your video and mark the in and out times that
you want to capture. That way you only have what you want on your hard
drive.

Not sure if Elements allows you to batch capture or not but that may
be a way to go as well.
