I have a problem with the installation with the new release. I tried to install it with the "Existing executable" but every time I tried to install it, it says that there is not enough space on my HDD. This is very strange because I have ~40GB of free space.
And before you ask it: I have my own Armada II CD, just I can't find it anywhere now 

Operation system is XP, it could be important.

EDIT: I've just found the CD and it installs the game without any problem. The previous issue is still interesting

How many partitions do you use?

Where do you want to install the FO?

Is enough space left on C:?

Of course there is enough space on the disk. I've wrote, there are more than 40GB on a single partition. By the way I have two HDDs, one with 250GB and one with 500GB separated to two partition with 100 and 400GB.
I have far enough space on every partition because I just upgraded the system. I tried to install the game on every partition by copying the basic game to them and after the install, but the issue was always the same.

hm, i had no issues to install fleet operations on computers with a lot less space available. could you run the installer again and look if the available space is shown correctly by the installer?

I tried to install it several times, but the available space was always incorrect. Then I shut down my computer and go into the bed. Now I tried to install it again and everything was fine.
I don't know what was the problem, but now it is solved.
