# my mate's done that
he's worked with computers for years, but he can't work out what's going on with mine.
the fact that he built it may have something to do with it.

The choices are GB, MB, KB, or B.

# Look, if he's replaced the hard drive, and re-installed windows you would have no problems with the memory filling up.
It takes years to get that sort of problem from a clean install. Therefore it's a hardware problem. Either motherboard, or RAM. Can't be hard drive as he's already changed it. The trouble with that is that shouldn't cause your hard-drive to fill up with bollocks.
