Hi,
In your situation I would try and find out what my memory guzzlers were.  I have 
a program called treesize.exe which can list every folder in order of memory taken. 
 Alternatively use the find files facility and find on the C drive all files over 
a certain size say 500kb.  To do this select the 'c' drive put in *.* and on the 
advance tab select files with a 'minimum size of say 500kb.  This will direct you 
to where the large files are.  You can then decide to either uninstall the program, 
delete the files, or convert the files.  One of the common memory guzzlers are BMP 
picture files which can easily be converted to jpg format with a reduced quality 
with no on screen visible difference.  Be a little bit careful on this as some programs 
need some picture files in BMP format and if you are printing the picture file, especially 
if enlarged, you might want to stick with the BMP format or a high quality jpg.
