SUMMARY

In the Add/Remove Programs utility in Control Panel, the size displayed in the Components list may differ from the size specified for the Space Required value. (To view the Components list, click the Windows Setup tab.) The size in the Components list is the total size of the actual files. The size specified for the Space Required value is calculated using the cluster size of the hard disk drive, which varies depending on the size of the hard disk and how it is formatted.
