SUMMARY
When installing Microsoft Windows Sound System on a diskless workstation either from a network share directory or from the original floppy disks, the following error message appears:

Setup cannot find a drive with enough space to install



MORE INFORMATION
This error occurs because the SETUP.EXE program for the Windows Sound System is hard coded to look at the local hard drive for available space. This message will also appear when installing to a drive that physically does not contain enough free disk space. The Windows Sound System requires between 1 and 10 MB of free disk space, depending upon the configuration.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Windows Sound System version 1.0, 1.0a, and 2.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
