Hard disk full by Roger
I started getting the hard disk full warning when my 2.2gig C:\ was about half full. Without adding any further software to the disk it now shows the disk as almost totally full. Waht could be filling my hard drive? I have ran disk cleanup and found nothing that seems to be hogging the drive.

lost cd-rw & dvd players by Roger
I use a AMD ATHLON 1100 MHZ, 256 MB RAM, Windows 98. The start-up phase shows the cd-rw & dvd drive, however, the drives are not accessible and do not even show up in the device manager. This used to be an intermittent problem and now is all the time. Please help!

PC Card Disk vs. Win 98se by Roger Williams
I just ordered a 5-Gb PC card disk from Toshiba for my Satellite laptop. It's supposed to need Win 98SE; I seem to have plain 98. I wonder if it'll work w/my system, and how to upgrade to 98se if it won't. I can't find a 98se upgrade on Toshiba, Microsoft or CompUSA.
