Exclamation Disk Problem??

Everytime I try to download, I keep getting a "disk Problem" message on the download screen where it shows you the number of hosts/download complete. Can anyone help me with this? Why is it doing this, and how can I stop it?

okay . when it says "disk problem" it has to do with your pc and not LW. it says this when there is no space to save your file. so try cleaning up ur hard disk and re d/l the file.

Default Diask Problem

I've been having the same problem myself. Keep getting 'disk problem' when downloading songs. My hard drive is no where near to being full and i've emptied the destinatoin folder where my music downloads to.
I'm still getting 'disk problem'.

Anyone any ideas?

Have you tried defragmenting your harddisk. That sometimes is the problem. If that's not it, then maybe trying to delete the preferencefolder for Limewire.

If none of the above, then I have no idea

I have had this happen many times but only with my jump drive - with that i ended up reformatting it and it has been fine ever since... it would only be half full and would say disk error no remaining file space or some such crap

Hello. I am getting this error message as well. First Time in 2 years! I recently got a new hard drive just to hold all my music, photos and movies til they get burned. It's something like 400 gigs and I have used approximately 50. I changed the location of save to the new drive. Most of the limewire downloads come through - I've successfully downloaded movies, songs and short videos on to the new drive, but a sprinkling of downloads don't complete, showing "disk problem" as the error message. A preview shows the video or plays the song without any problems, yet the dl doesn't show in my completed folder. One post above says to reformat the hard drive - well, because of what I won't even begin to entertain THAT thought. The default location of course is in Drive C, which can't hold much more. I don't want to do a major overhaul of my computer (time constraints; whole family sharing computer). The new drive is good - no problems with any other downloads. Any other suggestions out there???

Without chnging the subject here can you purchase a hard drive in any Best Buy, Office Max, or Circuit City store? I've been browsing them lately and i'm confused about what it's purpose is.
