Ok, 
maybe I should clear up a few things.
I have done a chkdsk to make sure
everything is OK.
I forgot about the hidden files, 
it says I have about 8 megs of them.
Isnt this a bit much?
Im mostly an applications kinda guy, so I dont know
much about configuration deals.  Sorry.
When I meant memory, I was meaning HD bytes available for
storage.  
For one thing, I had at least 3.5 Megs free about a week ago,
and the next thing I know I only have the 385K free.
I just dont know where it went.  I was thinking something 
along the lines of backups screwing things up or something.
Does windows do this?  Thanks a million! 


Derek


PS It's not just windows that I have this problem with,
   Being in Dos does not free up any HD bytes.
