Re: Warning Claims I Am Running Out of Space

You know, I thought the warning mentioned the partition that has so much
space available, but it may be mentioning the partition that has almost no
space available! I haven't seen the popup recently, so I can't verify.

Here's my setup: Windows Vista Home Premium is on my C Drive with about 120
GB free. Windows Server 2008 Beta is on my W Drive with probably less than
10 MB free (since I'm just playing with it and it didn't want to dedicate
much space to it). When I'm in Windows Vista Home Premium, is it still
possible that the message could concern the W Drive, even though I have
Vista loaded on my C Drive?

Thanks!
