    Status: Open => Answered

Tom proposed the following answer:
Hmmm, its not the usual problem then.  Where it say "Other Os" that's a
heading rather than an option.  The 2 options for Vista is unusual i
take it you are using raided drives?  It's often more difficult to
install onto raided drives but you've got through that part already.
Could you go to the top taskbar and click on "Places" and open your
"Documents" folder.  The status bar at the bottom should show how much
free space it thinks is there.  Also is you wastebin full of some huge
files?

Assuming that nothing there has helped please go up to the top taskbar
and click on

System - Administration - Partition Editor

and copy into here all the info in the bottom pane.  Take care with the
partition editor because you can destroy all your data very fast with it
and i think we need to avoid that!  At the moment i'm just interested in
using it to get information.

Thanks, good luck and regards from
Tom :)
