Ok i already pre ordered the game when I found out about the demo...after about 6 hours download time I installed and tried it out. At that time I had ruffly about 150g open on a 500g hd. I did a few play throughs of the very short demo (2 gig for a 30 min demo??) and shortly after I got messages saying that I had low hard drive space. I went thru all my files. Got rid of the demo exec file I downloaded....transfered a bunch of music files to an external drive...got rid of my 3d programs(huge files there...3d max...maya...etc) which ended up giving me about 20g back in hard drive space.
Tonight I played the demo again...and yet again I got the low disk space message afterwards. Looked and saw that i had only about 100mb of space remaining.
Is anyone else having this problem. I know dragon age would periodically take screenshots and take up hd space...does this demo do something similar? Like keep logs or anything?
Not to mention my preferred cleaner "CCleaner" has been giving me huge issues in the last release....taking huge amounts of time to delete files...then only to run it again and have it try to delete those same files again. In my case vids and game files. Which disk defrag is also picking up as recycling bin files even after running "CCleaner" multiple times.
I tried wiping the free space.....tried moving files....tried deleting programs...no matter what I do....after I play the demo my hard drive is full again
Any suggestions??
Thanx all

ok nevermind....did some more research and found out my recycling bin was corrupted....however that happened...cleaned it out through command prompt and now have 323g free space again. Phew...lol
Oh actually while im here...anyone else having probs with resolution?? I had a bit of a wierd resolution 1280 x 1030 so its usually a pain to get games set just right. The demo doesnt really have any resolutions close to my screen size so im either ending up at a very small resolution or too big for my screen. Not a huge deal cause I figured that maybe they were limited for the demo...but thats just a guess...
Thanx all....again
