What is saying it's full? The screenshot you posted shows 1.79GB of free space. Later it said 7GB of what?

If it is Windows Defrag that is telling you it is full and it can't defrag the disk, its because it needs 15% (I think) of free space on the drive to carry out the defrag.

As krit86lr said, the screenshot shows 1.79GB of free space left.

If you let us know what program you are trying to run, I'll see if I can provide anymore assistance.

That's correct, 15% of free space is needed to defrag a hard drive. But it seems that hotdoge3 is in need of a new, and larger hard drive more than a defrag.

If this is some kind of joke there is a language barrier that's keeping me and probably others from understanding...

hotdoge... how do you talk on these boards. Do you try to speak English from what you know, or do you use a translation website? If it is the former, use the latter. If it's the latter, find a different website. It makes understanding you very hard sometimes.
