Q141309: MS Plus! Setup Cannot Display 1 GB or More Free Disk Space

Article: Q141309
Product(s): Microsoft Windows 95.x Retail Product
Version(s): 95
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): win95
Last Modified: 18-DEC-2000

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Windows 95 
- Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you install Microsoft Plus! using the Custom Setup option, the Custom Setup
dialog box does not display free disk space of 1 gigabyte (GB) or more.

CAUSE
=====

Setup cannot display the gigabyte unit correctly. If a disk has 1 GB or more of
free disk space, Setup displays only 999,999K as being available. The incorrect
amount of free disk space displayed does not affect Setup's ability to
successfully install Microsoft Plus!.


STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Plus! version 1.0 for
Windows 95. We are researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
