Vista on E:// drive

Posted: 02-27-2007, 06:53 PM
For some reasons I have my XP WORKING from the E drive and the C drive is
full but I have all the space needed to upgrade - Vista doesn't allow me to
pick which drive to go to - it immidietly says that there is no enough space
in the C:

Anyone can help?
Thanks

Hi Hani,

Can you boot from the Vista DVD CD to install Vista? You can usually
pick and choose which partition to install Vista on, if it installs like the
Beta Versions.

Choose Custom install.

To boot from your DVD, you need to go into your BIOS and adjust the boot
device list so it shows CD/DVD as the first device to check.
