I have been burning DVD's and making big AVI and MPEG
files.These have all been on my extra (D) drive. I thought
that I cleaned it all up, but now the 60gig drive says that
it is full,and only 3gig is available, and although I
cleaned up the drive with the tool utensile, I can't locate
the big files that it says are on the drive. It's driving
me crazy. Help Please.

Open Windows Explorer, set the folder to show all files,
show file extensions, etc.
Delete the files you want, save the files you want to
CD-R/DVD-R (whatever you've got)/
The disk clean-up utility doesn't delete data files, only
temp and cache files, and some others.
