  • Saboteur needs at least 4049Mb so he hasn't got enough room on his hard drive for the install.

    has he got lots of demos, music and videos on his hdd?

    if so get him to do housekeeping and delete all the old files he doesnt need. when you install a game, profile and software updates/patches get installed so it can take up a surprising amount of space. same with themes.

    Or buy him a bigger hdd :)

    if you have PlayTV, all the recordings can take up a lot of space (around 1.5gb - 2gb for a 1hr recording)
