I am running WinXP SP3 Pro. My harddrive is partitioned into 4 partitions
with C drive having the operating system on it. I originally formatted
this
harddrive about 4 years ago making C drive 10GB. Over the 4 years, I've
downloaded many software updates for Windows and my other applications. I
noticed that I only have about 1.5GB left in C drive and would like to
free
up some space if possible. Once the downloads are downloaded and ran, do
the
downloaded files sit dormant somewhere in the C drive? In other words,
can I
delete the downloaded files to free up C drive space? Or are they
constantly
being referenced and called upon by the computer system?
I am just trying to clean up C drive without making the system unstable.

It depends on what exactly you downloaded - please give some examples.
You might also move the paging file to a different drive in order to free up
disk space, and maybe restrict the amount of space used by System Restore.
