Do you get this message before or after you get to the logon screen?

If your drive supports it, go for a DVD, they hold more data. If not, go for a CD

If you don't have a CD/DVD burner or would find burning a CD difficult a memory/pen drive would be pretty simple.

I got a 4GB recently from www.ebuyer.com for £15.

Or if you've got an mp3 player just create a folder labelled 'pics' in it and move the files across.
