What Backup Software are you using
And where are you saving to?
That would be my starting point with any server problem like this.
Then what is the size of the Swap File/Page File and any other Temporary Files that the system creates?

Try WinDirStat
Hi there,
If I were in your situation, I would use WinDirStat (http://windirstat.info/) to see where all my space is going. It gives you an immediate, visual representation of your largest files.

I would try Directory Report
http://www.file-utilities.com
It is faster than WinDirStat
and I would check the size of datafiles for backup programs

WinDirStat has the dual advantage of being free of charge and open-source software. Sorry for not giving this information straight away.
I actually discovered it when looking for a Windows equivalent to KDirStat for KDE, which is exactly what led the author to create it !

resolved
thanks for all the reponse.
1.I had already taken all system files into account.
2.I do not have option of using third party tools.
But finally the problem got resolved after i ran check disk on the C drive. As I had suspected it was a log file of about 24 GB that was not getting reflected anywhere.
However the search, for the application that is generating it ,is still on.
