Is it possible your music files were on D:\? Windows
needs room on C:\
Gateway has good 'system restore' disks. If I were you I
would back up your personal files to CD and return your
operating system to new by restoring your system with
full format. If you're not that ambitious try removing
programs using the add/remove control panel icon.
