Legacy KB ID: 2719

Question

The problem occurs when tyring to restore the backup and the process comes to a halt with a message saying 'Not enough disk space, please free up some space and try again'. Similar messages that come up are; 'Out of Disk Space' 'Insufficient Disk Space'

Answer

First confirm that the floppy disk is not damaged by copying the data from the floppy into the hard drive. If a message appears that says 'The system cannot read from the specified device. Please check that it's not write protected'. If the disk is not write protected then it is definitely damaged as Windows in unable to read from it. If it does copy across to the hard drive then try restoring the file from the hard drive.
