I am trying to convert some avi's into vob files using nero but when I am ready to do this an error message keeps on coming back saying that my temp folder (c:\documents and settings\user\local settings\temp) has 2766mb available but 3885mb is needed. Is there a way around this? Is there a way I can increase the capacity of the temp folder.

1) this would be better asked in the TQ&A section.
2) folder space is limited by only 2 things:
a disk quota application
or
actual free space on partition.

try only converting one file at a time.
