My hard drive to small
Sunday, June 8, 2003 by james lafitte | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I would like to down load onto a CD-R, and not on my hard drive.
How can I do that? When I try , It tells me I can not.

You can't download directly to your CDrom drive. You gotta save it to the hard drive then burn it after.
If you're that short on hard drive space you may want to consider buying a new one. They're pretty cheap these days.
Here's a 45 gig drive for $55.00 http://www.driveguys.com/TabStyle/itemdesc.asp?CartId=&ic=WD450AW&cc=&tpc=

Just be sure to run any vendor you find on pricewatch through www.resellerratings.com. Usually, the first page or two of vendors on pricewatch is loaded with vendors that have horrible ratings. Just a friendly saftey tip!
Personally, they may not be the absolute cheapest all the time but you simply can''t beat newegg.com for customer service and shipping price and speed.

If you get a large drive, make sure your BIOS can recognize it! Even some newer ones can't see above 139Gb without an update.

FWIW, DriveGuys (link above) is not a company I think anyone would want to deal with.

Actually, if you have a CD-RW and a program such as Nero's InCD, you can treat your CDRW's as hard drives (albeit, very small hard drives).
