Murray, Exactly what are the steps you are following to download this Gedcom file? Are you certain that your hard drive is not full? Are you trying to download this gedcom file from a website? From an email? You say you are trying to download the file to your desktop? Try saving the file to C:\ instead of the desktop. Allan Plucinik Colorado Springs, CO murray wrote: > > Help Please. When I try to download a ged to desktop I get a message that the disk is full and to install another disk to continue. Of coarse there is no disk to be full as I am trying to get it on the desktop. I am running , Ver.# 8 on XP professional What is the problem and how do I fix it. Thanks. > Murray > Saskatchewan > Canada.
