Computer game installation question

[Wineguy]

Angela has her nephew here the next couple days and he is trying to install Portal 2 on her old Dell Inspirion Computer. It says that there is not enough disk space and you either choose another folder to install on or delete things off the C: drive, I think. I looked and don't see many options to delete. Any suggestions please? Thank you.

When I was a kid we didn't all these gadgets, we went outside played....And we liked it......:0003















But enough about me....Sounds like the old dog can't handle the new toy.......Shell out a couple hundred on a new comp....Or ship his ass outside and play....:0008

i am almost positive portal 2 is over 6 gigs, so youll need double what you have free, at least. I feel like the computer youre attempting to install it on might not even be able to handle the game.

pretty awesome game though.

If it's a 6 gb game, I agree with Airportis


Even if you clean up the computer, which I do recommend (- Try Ccleaner - http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/download/17833cfe6b23070109f94037f76965f7/ )
the game may be too resource intensive


There are some great computers out there under 500 bucks


intels processors - the i3-i7 processors are good
Recommend 8 gb RAM - minimum
and 750 gb hd space - minimum
hdmi out

Here's a good deal - The i3 is bottom end processor but they still hum compared to older processors.

On ccleaner I would also go to startup and turn off all programs that begin at start up


Good Luck
