Daggerfall won't install

Basically, I installed Daggerfall, from the disc, using DosBox (I'm on Vista, and it's version 0.72). It worked, but not very well. A bit of fiddling helped a bit, but not much. So I decided to try installing it from a ISO image I created instead.

Now it's not working at all. For some reason, it refuses to accept my mounted C: drive exists when I try to install it. It always tells me there isn't enough room (on all sizes). This is just Daggerfall, the drive is fine outside of the installer.

I tried to change the install path, to see if that would help, but it told me there were no available drives.

After a while, I decided that a laggy game was better than no game at all, and tried to reinstall it the same way I'd done previously, same problem.

I've tried everything I know, but I admit that this not a lot of things.

I would greatly appreciate any advice.

Edit: No wait, it would seem that I'm an idiot, on both counts.

It's installing fine now, sorry for wasting your time.
