You could buy a new HDD, there's
double your current size for £57 and a
ludicrous 320GB on on offer too for £85. If your upto a bit of diy you could get a HDD disk caddy from ebay for about £5-£10, pop your new drive in it and clone the contents of your current drive onto it. Once done take out the old drive and replace with the new one. I'm a bit out of touch with what programs are best to do this on PCs these days but can have a look if you want. Alternatively you could take it to a computer shop and pay someone to do it.
I've never found compression of file to be great if you want to actually use them on a regular basis, and it'll only delay your problem of running out of space for a wee while.
There is a free program from Microsoft called
Sync toy, which is rather handy for backing up files to another drive and keeping them in check and it'll only update any changes rather than the whole thing in one go
HTH,
