How can I fool XP to report more free space?

[Rock]

The only thing on my 4GB C drive is Windows and system files. All other
apps and paging file etc are on a seperate drive and partitions.

I'll contact the game manufacture (highly unlikely they will be of help
).


Cheers!

That's not enough. Save yourself the grief and upgrade.

It's probably not crappy. I'd say his system is not configured properly. I suspect Program Files are still set to C.

I'd be amazed if this application required more than 2GB of free space - and
if the setup routine doesn't allow him to direct the installation where he
wants it to go, that's a crappy setup routine.

It depends upon the "application," I'd think. For instance, my Diablo
II folder is 1.7 Gb; there are probably some other, newer games that, if
one elects to a full installation, take more space.

No argument there.

Could be - I don't install/play games on my computer, so I don't have a lot
of experience with 'em.

What realm you play on?

I don't play on-line. When I want to interact with people, I go out.
When I don't want to interact with people, but still want to relax, I
play computer games.
