Try Panda's uninstall tool:

How do i minimize my memory available in my Drive C? Can i move
some files to Drive D from Drive C? Wat r those files i can do?

I assume you mean increasing the available disk space. You do not tell us
how much total space your drive has, but I recommend you run Disk Cleanup
from the Accessories menu to free up some space.

If your ressources are stretched, reduce the storage System Restore uses, as
this can free up a lot of space. Open up a command prompt as admin
(right-click the icon and select Run as Administrator). At the prompt, type:

vssadmin resize shadowstorage /on=C: /For=C: /Maxsize=???

You can set any max size you wish (where the question marks are), but keep
in mind each restore point requires approx. 300MB, and you should make room
for several points. The Maxsize value takes both MB and GB suffixes.

Pls advice me whether is Windows Update good for my computer or its
taking up more memory space especially from my Drive C? Ive been
installing Windows Update till now.

Keep Windows Update on! It is your best insurance against security,
stability and performance problems. The updates claim some disk space, but
it is not much and it is definitely worth it.

Ive just upgraded my computer to 1GB b4 i installed Windows Vista
Home Premium & now i only hv 10% left in my Drive C but hv at least
90% in my Drive D.

RAM memory has nothing to do with hard disk space. You need to tell us the
capacity of your hard drive(s) before anyone can give specific advice.

Some computers come with multiple drives or logical volumes. Sometimes there
is a small D drive where the restore files are stored. Do not tamper with
such a volume, you might need it one day.

If this is not the case, and your D drive is just a regular one, then by all
means store files on it. Move user files only, such as documents, pictures
and videos. Leave Windows, programs and and settings files where they are.
