open "My Computer"

open "C:" drive

click "Search" button on toolbar

If you are using XP and get a pointless dog avatar trying to help your
search you need to download TweakUI and switch on Classic Search In
Explorer then continue:

click "Search Options" in pane on left

click "Size" tick box

enter the size you want (e.g. 102400 for 100MB files)

click "Search Now" button
