100% Work your can do it. If you read "NOT ENOUGH DISK SPACE" or "DISK WRITE ERROR" at installing or updating your Stem games it's means: Your hard drive (read Hardisk) there is a problem with your hard drive its could no longer inserted any file. If you've ever tried: "Run as Administrator, deleting c:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Downloading\ or etc etc will not be able to overcome the problem i am believe it cause your problem on physical disk drive. The only solution is to fix the hard drive to make sure there are no more bat sectors on the hard disk. How to? follow the steps below:
1. Uninstall Steam
( As a note before your uninstall Steam please BACKUP your Games so that later no
longer a lot of time wasted for download again).
2. Make sure all Steam folder already not available
3. If there is nothing left to remove!, if your CAN''T DELETE steam folder usually on
c:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Downloading\ all folder here, This is the main
problem where your hard drive have error, bad sector etc. You can fix it yourself easily, how:
=== Handling Problem Hard Drive Error ===
1. Go to Start --> Computer --> Right Click Local Disk (C:) --> Properties --> Select tab Tool
Check Now on Check disk option, Check Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sector
(don't forget it) or make sure everything is in check then Start... then there will be a
message "Windows can't check the disk while it's in use, select "Schedule disk check"
2. Run CMD Start --> All Program --> Accessories --> Right Click Command Prompt Run as
Administrator.
3. Type chkntfs /x c: press enter
4. Type chkntfs c: press enter
5. Type fsutil dirty query c:
6. Type chkdsk /f /r c:
7. Exit ----> rebot your computer ---> wait it is rather long but be patient . . .
After all is finished you will get a FRESH HARD DRIVE.
