I recieve this error message from The Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor although
I have 50 GB on my D: drive and more than 100 GB on the H: drive?

We're sorry, but your PC cannot currently install and run the core
experiences of Windows Vista.
However, you may be able prepare your computer for Windows Vista by
upgrading your PC hardware.
You will need to take the following actions to run Windows Vista.

Additional hard drive storage

15GB free space required (Your computer currently has 6.70 GB)
You will either need to:
a) upgrade your hard drive to increase its capacity, or
b) create additional free space on your existing drive by removing unwanted
files.
If you decide to upgrade your hard drive, we recommend 40GB capacity at
minimum for premium editions of Windows Vista. Contact your PC retailer to
see if an upgrade is available.
 
It is possible that the Upgrade Advisor is only looking at your C drive and
not seeing the other ones.
 
It gives you the option to install to another drive/partition during setup.
There isn't a way to correct what the upgrade advisor is doing as far as i know.
