Error saying not enough disk space, but there is plenty

I'm trying to install a CD that came with a TV Tuner. I keep getting a
message telling me there is not enough free space, but I have 57 GB left,
which is plenty.

I've tried a disk cleanup, chkdsk, and scndsk. I've tried to run the setup
as administrator. Any other suggesttions?

Re: Error saying not enough disk space, but there is plenty

What make/model tuner are you trying to install the software for?
Have you tried getting the software/drivers from the tuner manufacturers
website instead?
How much memory (RAM) do you have?
How much memory does your graphics card have?

Thanks for replying

The tuner is pinnacle PCTV HD pro stick
The software is PCTV TVCenter PRO 4.7
I have 2GB Ram
My graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GO 6150
I've tried downloading just about everything from their website. There is
one thing I downloaded for Vista 32 bit. It said to unzip the file and
follow the onscreen instructions. I unzipped it and nothing happened. I
tried opening different parts of the file, and nothing happened.

You have to get the latest drivers for your NVIDIA GO card from your laptop
manufacturer since the Laptop manufacturers almost all if not all modify the
standard drivers for their custom laptop hardware.
If your 6150 card uses shared memory how much do you have allocated to it in
your BIOS?
