If you really have only 1% left, I'm surprised the machine works at all.
Windows creates lots of temporary files while it is working so often needs a fair amount of disk space. I would try to have about 10% or more of your disk empty (depending on the disk size).

I would clean out your disk as a matter of urgency.

Empty recycle bin, delete all temporary internet files, and run a "disk clean up" (supplied with Windows).

Delete (or back up then delete) as many of your personal files as you can, particulalry video files of all types as they tend to be the largest types of files.
Yes, a pretty big clear out is needed. Just be careful not to delete essential programs and system files though. Do a disk clean up and empty the recycle bin as others have said and look to see which files take up the most space. Videos, music and photos can be the main culprits. I also found that one computer used to have loads of backups/system restore points and I didn't need all of them
Get an external USB hard drive and move as many files as you can onto that. That will free up space on your system drive which should help some.

What Operating System are you running?
