SUMMARY
When you install or upgrade Windows NT 4.0, an error message is received:
Setup was unable to save registry data.default to the
<drive_letter>:\%system_root%\Profiles\Default user\ntuser.dat because
of the following error: RegSaveKey returned error 112.
MORE INFORMATION
The RegSaveKey function saves the given key, and all of its subkeys and
values, to a new file. If the function succeeds, the return value is
ERROR_SUCCESS; otherwise, it is an error value. In this case, error 112
represents Error_Disk_Full.
RESOLUTION
There is not enough room on the current disk drive to hold Windows NT 4.0.
More drive space needs to be made available on the current drive, or the
installation needs to be moved to a larger drive or partition.
