| How are you looking for the files? If you're simply using the Finder, then you won't find a lot of the files that OS X uses, because they're hidden or you don't have permission to access them. Do you have a MacAlly gamepad connected to the computer? The reason I ask is that one of their drivers caused repeated entries to a log file, which quickly swelled until the hard drive was full. They've released updated drivers that fix this problem.
