Hi Debra

Disk Management

Did it show both drives Healthy; C: as primary? 

So your drive has been partitioned - a sensible idea puts WXP on C: and users files/ 
Applications files on D?

Your film download - large  download - did it complete; fail for lack of space? 

Check freespace on your drives - should be enough for your downloads and at least 
15-20% left free.

Open My Computer, right click drive, Properties, pie chart.
