Installation Problems

I'm trying to install the most recent player for firefox and I'm having trouble getting it to install. Every time I download it, it says there is not enough disc space and I need to clear 5000kb of memory and try again. Funny thing is, the reason I'm installing flash player is that my hard drive recently failed has been replaced with one twice the size. So there should be somewhere in the region of 220 GB of free space on my computer. And this isn't enough? What's going on?

    Hi Folks-
    I went to forums.techarena.in and did a search on your issue. Seems the things to check is to verify that the download is going to the correct drive letter for your harddrive (normally "C") and not somewhere else, such as to the DVD drive or floppy,etc. Sounds "DUH", but check it out.
    Also, try downloading FP to your desktop ("Save") and install it from there instead of running/installing from the website ("Run"). Check out the instructions for downloading FP10 for non-IE browsers (downloads/get flash player).
    Good luck!

    I've been experiencing the precisely same issue. Every time I try to install it, I get the poput telling me that I lack 5000 kB, which is obviously rubbish, since my HD has atleast 30GB free memory. Just so, I ended up freeing 1GB memory to check if it worked, however the installer prompted the same problem.

    I have the identical problem as both of you. I wonder what would prompt an adobe response?
