Hi Richard,

One alternative is a portable hard drive that connects via your usb 
port.  Assuming that your computer is fairly new and you have a USB2 
connection (I think that is the designation) the transfer rate is 
fast.  You can get a very large capacity drive for a reasonable 
price.  You could back up your entire hard drive and start over with 
a clean one on your computer!
