The obvious question, to which you should have answered by yourself in the first post: is there enough space to install the game on your hard disk drive? How can we know if you don't tell us.

OK, cool.

So, how about telling us which version of the Windows operating system are you using? :)

There is the Biki page http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Troubleshooting but I didn't see anything there that mentions "not enough space". You might want to check that page by yourself in case you didn't do it yet.

Just a quick guess:

  1. Do you have enough of free space on drive C:? Installation Wizards copy some content there during installation.
  2. Check if you have write permission into target folder - after reinstalling Windows, your user is given a unique ID which will be different from the old one. Check NTFS permission. If you see in the list of permission something like this: S-1-5-32-... it's old user's ID.
