This looks like an error message coming from *Windows* itself, saying that you don't have enough disk space (in some sense). The c:\sage-vmware-2.8\ubuntu.vmdk file is huge, so that might be relevant. Your options include: (1) Check to see if you're low on disk space or have some sort of user disk quota stuff setup on your Win2000 notebook. (2) Find a Windows expect and ask them. (3) Temporary workaround -- make the ubuntu.vmdk file smaller... but this requires being able to start Sage, so isn't an option. (4) Read the link from mabshoff given below very carefully; probably you installed some software into Windows at some point that is causing this problem. (5) Ask at the vmware forum.
