Viruses have been know to fill up hard drives as well.
Hope this helps.thanks mayers57 i Will give that a go.

allthough my son may have found the problem, he found some hidden files in our cd/dvd coppier sonic record now, it is supposed to copy a temporary file on the hard drive but it appears to have saved them for some reason, now we deleted them and RELEASED a massive 42gb.
thanks again for the help.


All burner programs move/copy whatever is being burned to a Temp file...
Set the preferences in your burning app to remove them after the burn is finalised.
