Cant install RA3 on a different partition?

[GinG]

Hi all,

Trying to install RA3, I have 3 partitions, one of which I install my games on.

When trying to install onto E, it wont let me and I dont have enough space on the windows drive.

Why is this not possible?

Is there a way of making the windows partition bigger?

Thanks

I was able to install it to my E: drive, although that's a seperate drive, not partition.

My guess is that it needs temp space to extract to while installing, and either you've got your temp dir set on your Windows partition (typically it will be under your user folder by default IIRC), or it's hardcoded to use that partition for temp space.

To be honest if you've only got a few gig free on your Windows partition, it's probably worth clearing some stuff out anyway.

Its ok, got it installed.

Installed Vista then this, long way about it but was going to install Vista at some point anyway!
