"...after some programs are loaded..."

Does "loaded" mean when you open programs? If so, you're not seeing a message "showing low disk space" but you may be seeing a message that your virtual memory is low. That means you do not have sufficient RAM to support all the software you are running (including in the background.) Your solution is to close programs or buy more RAM.

Also make sure that virtual memory is correctly set to "system managed size".

Or does "loaded" mean when you install software? If so, you can merge partitions with third-party partition management software. Two popular examples are Acronis' Disk Director and Symantec's Partition Magic. Be forewarned that partition management software is complicated.

Before considering partition management software, run the Disk Cleanup Wizard (and do not follow the suggestion to compress seldom used files.)

Hi, Hope you can help me.
I bought a Dell laptop running on Windows XP Professional with 4 partitions on.
I would like to meld one of the partitions with the C drive to increase my disk space. The C drive only have 9GB space and after some programs are loaded keeps on showing low disk space.
