Local Disk C:
Free Space:20.7 GB
Total Size: 46.9 GB
-Here's where all my programs and games are put
Local Disk D(it's named my documents and I have no idea why):
Free Space:94.6 GB
Total Size:100.2 GB
-Not much is here
Do you think I should port all my games to Disk D to make them run faster?

If I were you, I'd check my PC for malware and disable useless services at startup rather than worry about the free space...

I thought about that, but if he's playing C&C Zero Hour, that shouldn't be that much of an issue... I can run it on my 9-10 year old PC (which has only 80GB of HDD incidentally )

Well my "new computer" was just given to me a few months ago. In the last one I had I could run all games smoothly since it was a better one(games like C&C3 TW) but some virus smashed all my files(especially all my archives like my Generals mod D:). Currently I'm using an older computer and I don't find it easy to convince both my parents to upgrade it or buy a new one -_- so I have to stick with this one.
EDIT:
I just checked my antivirus and I just found out that ALL quarantined files have a Trojan virus. What's even stranger is that most of them belong to a non-existing directory from G:/. Perhaps it came from my friend who used it before. You think I should delete it?

Also, can you post your specs for the sake of knowing if it's a malware causing this or if it's just because you have old hardware?

Well that won't run most modern games, I think my Windows 98 machine is faster than that.

Also, for the record, "specs" mean "computer parts", and that's what I asked for, not the list of quarantined viruses

It seems new to me
Anyway I deleted most the viruses
Also I'm using Windows XP
One more thing; I tried all games today and found out that I can run Generals and other games smoothly 90% of the time but it's the opposite for C&C3 TW and KW. They lag when there's a large map or many units.

Again, I am suprised that you computer doesn't lag with a large number of words in notepad.
Btw, new and up to date are two very different things.
