Hope here is someone who can help me thanks Okay how much space is there on the C Drive? If I remember rightly what happens is that when a program is to be installed it looks at the C Drive no matter what drive letter you select as it will use the C Drive for file paging in other words it will use your C Drive while its installing onto your G Drive... I maybe wrong on this though but I would make sure you have some space on the C Drive... without having my notes (They're at work) typical the one day you need work and you leave it at work... Hope this helps some... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slartibartfast 153 Posted March 29, 2010 Not to my knowledge... When I am next in work I will ask around but the wonderful people at Microsoft (Need a Sarcasm Emote for that one) expect everyone to use a single Hard drive classed as C: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ezlead 42 Posted March 30, 2010 76: I have a C and D drive. I move most of my "storage" stuff to my D drive. That always leaves me enough room to operate the "Microsoft Way" on my C drive. Just a suggestion if you can do it that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
