so i started playing silkroad. and i had over 4 gigs left on my one drive. after playing silkroad it was all gone. somehow silkroad is eating my hard-drive space. and the weird thing is. silkroad is on a different drive. everytime i get donep laying silkroad i get a pop-up saying i've run out of room on C:/ and i have to do a disk cleanup. anyone else have this problem or know why silkroad is eating my space?

The trick is not to put ur hard-drive in your mouth and chew

lol omn a serious note, its all the temp crap most likely, depending on your conncetion id delete silkroad and everythig related and re-download and install again, take all the un-used crap away

silkroad sometimes save cache files in ur temp folder wif out deleteing it, due to u dced or crashed

heres wut you can do

if u are using XP
go under c:\ , find document and settings, find your username, mostly administrator go under that, go in to local settings, wha la, here, temp folder, open it up, CLOSE all programs except your viewing that folder, deleted everything in there, then there is tempory interenet files, open it up, clean it

then go to start ==> run, type in dfrg.msc press ok, then u got the program to clean up your computer, run it for every single drive
it will take a long time tho... ALSO DONT TOUCH YOUR COMPUTER WHEN ITS DOING ITS JOB... yeah, took 43 hours to clean my 500 gig hard drive =_=... stupid 7200rpm.... y cant budget allow 10000rpm >.<

also there are computer cleaners online, find one looks decent.... well ill try to find some in english lol.....
