Managing hard drive space Help and Support For more information about keeping the hard drive space free of unnecessary files, click/tap Start, then click/tap Help and Support. Type the keyword disk cleanup in the Search box , then click/tap the arrow. Checking the hard drive for errors The Error-checking program examines the hard drive for physical flaws and file and folder problems. This program corrects file and folder problems and marks flawed areas on the hard drive so Windows does not use them. If you use your convertible tablet PC several hours every day, you probably want to run Error-checking once a week. If you use your convertible tablet PC less frequently, once a month may be adequate. Also use Error-checking if you encounter hard drive problems. To check the hard drive for errors: 1 Click/Tap Start, then click/tap My Computer. The My Computer window opens. 2 Right-click/Button-tap the hard drive that you want to check for errors, for example Local Disk (C:), then click/tap Properties. The Properties dialog box opens. www.gateway.com 231
