I just purchased a 1 TB Toshiba External Hard Drive for my PC Desktop. It is an Asus. I am trying to install my games onto the External drive and I was able to install 2 games but when I go to install the next expansion, it tells me that I can't install to the external hard drive as it could cause the system to become unstable.

When I go to look at the space left on the external hard drive it tells me that I have 906 GB free of 931 GB.

What is causing this and how can I fix it so that I can install my games onto the external drive, keeping my tower space that I do have free for programs like Office and Adobe that I need on the computer as well.

instead of installing directly onto the hard drive, install it on the computer, then copy on the hard drive. This should help.
