As I recall, on Binkley ver. 2.60 any Free Space larger than 2 Gig's, was 
interpreted as a "Negative number" causing Binkley to assume that you were out 
of drive space, the Fix for Hard drives with more than 2 Gig's of drive space, 
was: 1.) to create a seperate Partician of 2 Gig's or less, for Binkley to run 
on, or 2.) fill up the drive that Binkley was on with files, untill the Free 
Space was less than 2 Gig's..  :-))
