Author	Topic: HEELP! Not enough space in C: to install Vista
Josh1 Administrator	posted February 14, 2007 02:17 PM If you want you can format C in Windows with Disk Management more info here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309000 I guess that Media Center is on your D drive, so by using Disk Management delete that partition, then format C with NTFS and then you should be able to boot off the CD and have Vista install on C:\, and because you have Media Center on D, you will have a dual boot system. Meaning when you start the computer, you can either use Media Center or Vista. Let us know if you have any problems. ------------------ IP: Logged
