TV Won't play because "Hard disk is full"

     I have a Dimension 8300 Media Center PC.  I went to play my TV in the Media Center and it fails to work and I get a message saying " TV can't work because the hard disk you choose is full. Clear space on this drive, or choose another drive".  I really don't understand this message.  My hard drive(C) is 85% EMPTY and I have NO recorded TV programs on my Media Center program.  Anyone have any idea what "settings " their talking about and how I can correct this?   THANKS

    Hi:

    You might want to try and defrag, as suggested in this thread, which has some info on this problem:

    Hi again:

    Hope you will post back if that solves your problem. I have a RADEON X850 XT Platinum Edition card, and haven't had that problem.

    Good luck!

        I did go to the Recorder settings their talking about and the only hard disk I find is "C".  My drive "C" is over 80% free and there are zero recordings in the drive.  It appears that my ATI All-IN-WONDER 9000 Video card is incorrectly reading that my drive C is full.

        Thanks for the information. It appears there is no fix for the problem.  I did try the fragment thing earlier today with no luck. So, what I'm going to do is delete my old Video software completely from my PC and install a new All In Wonder 2006 Edition TV Video Card I just bought from Best Buy.  I give up trying to solve htis problem.  Frankly, I did'nt care for the picture quality on my old video card anyways.
