If your disk is not full it might have damaged sectors.
I recommend first doing a disk check by going to the disk's properties and check for errors on the Tools tab. Besides that consider installing a SSD drive if you're using a HDD drive now, in particular when your disk is damaged. |

Disc C - 60gb - work good
Disc E - 750gb HHD - work good any problem with work but other games like dota 2, pixel piracy, issac work on my disc E when only poe have problam with install i dont rich so i cant buy new disc only for poe :v new proposition |

how much space is available on all the various drives, and what types of drives are they (both the working AND non-working)?

C- space 10gb working
E- space 450gb non-wroking i think |

What are the manufacturer/models of the drives? Also, you said drive E was "working good" in a prior post, so I'm a little confused now. Perhaps it's just a language barrier issue.
Have you run both a "chkdsk" and a surface scan on your E drive (assuming your E drive is not an SSD)? There should be no reason that the installation should fail unless the drive has bad sectors or there is insufficient free space. The other cause of installation failures is Security/Permissions related around Windows and NTFS (not having access to the proper folder as your user). Are you running Steam as admin (by right-clicking the Steam icon and selecting "Run as Administrator")? Perhaps try that as well for the E drive installation. |

The other cause of installation failures is Security/Permissions related around Windows and NTFS (not having access to the proper folder as your user) how change This Permissions? |

You can only change permissions if you are have administrative permissions or Full control permission.
You have to go into the folder's properties and look at the advanced security options. There you can see "Change" in blue to change the owner of a folder. Click that and in the next screen type your username and click Check names. If you don't know your username, click Advanced and click Find to select your user account from the list of found users. When you've selected yourself, click Ok to return to the previous screen. Enable to checkbox to enable inheritance so that all the folders inside the selected folder will get the changed owner too...

before you "take ownership" you should just try installing PoE to E drive through Steam after launching Steam as administrator (by doing what I said before and right-clicking Steam and selecting "Run as Administrator").
You shouldn't normally HAVE to do this, but if it works after doing that, then chances are it is a permissions issue. |

BTW are you sure it's a permissions issue when you say:
" Did you get an error and what did it read or do you just think that because of the disk write error? Is there more data on E or can you try formatting it if necessary? Последняя редакция: Startkabels#3733. Время: 15 авг. 2014 г., 19:23:23
