In a thread recently run to find the onboard drivers of an HP dc7800 running win 7 32 bit (which were turned off in the bios while installing the new graphics card).
see - 'HP win 7 pc lost sound driver' in operating systems windows 7.
In this thread it was found that the hard drive was filling up extremely fast - this was due to the company that had refurbed the ex company pc, had put the win 7 on a small partition and that all downloaded software and general use was to use the other larger partition of the same disk (160GB split 111GB & 49GB).
The supplier suggested we copied the C drive to a folder on an External drive and then transfer this to the E partition, after doing a full system image and backup, we uninstalled all the most obvious things we could that were to do with what we had already installed, and then created a new folder for the C drive copy, which we did and things improved dramatically, the C went down to 16/17GB full (not the 21GB - sorry flavelle for the error).
My son is running BIOSHOCK ULTIMATE and after uninstalling it and the associated steam account, we reinstalled them to the E partition and this is where things get interesting and to the reason for this latest thread.
While installing the game, the steam account is loaded first, while returning to the account it sent an email to the address we provided, which comes up on my phone - it gives a code as it stated that the account was being used on a different PC in a different location - now this did not seem out of place as it was being reinstalled on a different partition, this morning however while reading the full e-mail it occurred to me the IP address was nowhere similar to that of our hub etc and the location was London on the e-mail - so, on his pc is an icon for teamview - I am now sure that due to this group licence effect, the transfering of data from the C to E drive has activated teamview, his pc is running MSE, and I was wondering on how to cut the ties with this invasive program, personnally I would want for the steam program to not be associated with the computer at the reseller and that is it possible to determine what is being sent to them.
Thanking you in advance
