Covak Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 I was just trying to uninstall something to clear up space on my crowded program drive when I got an error message about how the uninstall requires -4.26 gigs but there's only 512 KB free.

Lutter Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 LOL. Sounds like a situation where someone built an IKEA shelf in their house and it was too big to bring it out the door when they tried to move. Heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 If you over stuff an elevator with more people than it says it can handle in weight, and the elevator falls, killing everyone inside, well, you see my point. Fucking macs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuckin PCs You'll need to clear out a tiny bit more space. Try deleting your temporary internet files to clear up enough space to uninstall stuff. Delete some installation files, etc. You probably just need enough space to let the whole recycle-bin process work. And get a bigger program drive I've got 150gb out of 500GB earmarked for my Vista program drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTello Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Sounds like it might finally be time to upgrade from that Windows 95 machine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Right obviously the shortterm solution is to manually delete stuff. Another is to repartition your drive to allocate more space for the G drive (Assuming you have other partitions on that physical drive). I'd just do a search for the largest files on the disc, and delete some PDF documentation, sample images or music, or whatever looks expendable. I'm just shocked that Windows didn't tell you that it was running out of space before it hit zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
