Can't start HOMM3, error: requires at least 5MB...
After playing HOMM3 for a few days, suddenly I can't start the game, and I get this error message when I try to start it:
The error says, "Heroes III requires at least 5MB of free space on the current drive."
If I click the checkmark, it dumps me back to the Windows desktop.
My hard disk has over 7 gigabytes free. I'm running Windows XP with 1gb RAM. And I have been able to play the game for a few days. Anyone know what to do? I can't find anything on the Internet.

I know about that problem with other programs. Seems it wants to put Data on your wrong drive (CD). Have u tried to install the game new?

Fixed.
Yes, I did reinstall the game, and it worked. Then I put all my saved games back into the game's folder, and it didn't work. And I panicked! That meant I couldn't restore a saved game!!
Then, I don't know how thought of it, but I thought maybe there were TOO MANY saved games in the folder (there were only about 100 of them). So I deleted all but a few of the most current saved games, and voila! I could play again.
Too many saved games = unable to start game. Gotta remember that.
