It's saying there's not enough FREE space on C: - it needs 7MB more.But I'll bet you know this (just gotta cover the simple things first).<br />
<br />
Are you saying this is a blank drive,just Fdisk-ed and Formatted?<br />
<br />
Does BIOS report the correct size HD at boot?<br />
<br />
What does Fdisk/status show?<br />

Does BIOS report the correct size HD at boot?

What does Fdisk/status show?


<div>
Blank drive - yes. &nbsp;Just formatted and F/Disked - yes. &nbsp;BIOS report affirmative on correct HD size (LBA is enabled). &nbsp;F/Disk status shows 1 Primary DOS partition = HD size<br />
