Hello

I am trying to install a game on my PC , xp home sp2 the game is
260Mb , well it want install because it says i have only 105mb free
disk space and it needs 260MB disk space. I have 68GB free space on
C:\ and 73GB on D:\. , can anyone tell this old man whats going on?
The only thing i have done lately to my comp. is add 512mb more ram ,
i have 2048mb total.
Thanks much

Is this an old game or a DOS game? If so, the possibilities range from

Same could apply for any games from windows 3.1 to 95 and maybe 98.
