No, not really. Last time you heard that it fitted on one CD at that time, but there was no music and sound, so they would probably end up with 2.

Geeze Mobo! Break down and buy a bigger drive! At least a 40 gig. then you won't have to worry about it.
I also think Mythos meant to say there weren't any pictures on that disc either! LOL! I expect 3 just because the game is "supposed" to be even larger than <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />, and the backgrounds are still in 2d remember?

It's 30 gigs. But only 2 gigs is left of free space. (5 OS installed for school). And It's real hard to find a bigger HD for a notebook.


My 5 OS:
Win xp
Windows server 2003 enterprise edition
Mandrake
Redhat
Debian

ouch. though i've seen several around 100, real big.

hey, the computer i'm on, my private one has only 19.7 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Still the way I was told about HD's is that you should not exceed over half the drivespace, as it comprimises speed. If you get to a critical point of fullness,
(where your drive is) You stand the chance of major crash. Thats what I was told. Maybe you should look into getting one of those external drives. You can get a 80 gig for less than 100$ American nowdays(they make those for notebooks don't they?). I personally have a 80gig that has nothing but games on it. This drive is half full(and doesn't even have half my games on it). I have a 60gig that has the operating system, and associated programs on it. No games. I do it that way in case my OS screws up then I can format that drive and not loose my games. I want to get a 200gig external USB and transfer all my games to it, and use the 80gig for other things. Right now that 200gig is to much money...So I got to lay off the loading of games for awhile. Poop!

Oh yeah will <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> be compatible for windows 2003 server enterprise edition?

Access is faster towards the inside of a hard drive, but any recent defrag programs should be re-locating frequently accessed files and programs to the start of the drive. Even then, there is not really a huge performance difference. You may notice better performance loading a game at the start of a drive compared to the end, but you would have to be doing something very read/write intensive (large databases, etc) for that to be a significant real-world time difference.
I doubt Morbo finds the Linux distribution at the outside of the hard drive slower than the one closest to inside when doing the same types of things in all three distributions.

If you run out of space on your Windows drive/partition for the virtual swap file, that can cause crashes, and trying to save without enough space on a game drive/partition can cause an error or crash, but keeping half the drive free is very conservative.

I found A gig of 2/3 free keeps you crash free.

I stand corrected. Thank you for the insight, Raze. So I guess I can load some more games on my drive then? Great!
