Not enough memory to view a picture.

Alright this split hardrive thing is really getting annoying.
For some reason I can't open picture because my "Main" drive is full. How can I make it so the Windows Photo Viewer opens picture by using my other hard drive? I've tried placing the pictures I want to open on my other drive but it won't work.

More than likely because your virtual memory is stored on your main drive.
http://superuser.com/questions/237813/h ... -windows-7Should never have your main drive full though. Always need to keep a couple gigs free.

Use CCleaner or just remove stuff that you don't need.

Killandchill is right, you should always leave some space on your windows drive for updates and other random bloatware that windows likes to store there.
I suggest you remove something substatial from it, surely there is something? You're done after that, no settings etc.

What if theres nothing left to delete, but a 10GB game that HAS to stay on C, and a bunch of shit you cannot delete?

why would the game HAVE to stay? You can just copy all the files to another drive. Like reinstall and copy all the configs etc. A game never HAS to stay.

Let's you change the size of your pagefile. For a full C drive, take it down to 0 and up the one on your D drive. In reality you should just free space on your C drive. When this happened to me I changed my downloads and program files to install in my D drive. Can't just copy/paste to switch the program files directory though.
