"The disk is full" error
Kate G.
1) are you saving to a Hard Drive or a Floppy Disk (Floppies hold only 1.4
MB)
2) if saving to the hard drive -- is there sufficient room? (RAM here may
not be the issue) To find out how full your hard drive is... follow these
steps:
* Open My Computer (large icons view is easiest)
* With the tip of your cursor positioned over the C:\ drive Icon and
right click
* Choose properties
If this shows that your hard drive is full.... then something else is going
on.... but this is a quick and easy problem to rule out!
If your hard drive is full.... DO NOT start randomly deleting application
folders for games or software no longer used (to free up space). Be sure to
use either ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS or the uninstall functions. You can delete
any app files that YOU created (doc, xls,ppt...)
Just a thought!
