I have a Dell 4600 running MC 2002 and MC states that the disk is full. I
have over 20 GB left on the drive and nothing recorded

I think MCE has a setting to reserve a certain amount of disk space for
recording. I assume that when that space is used up, it will report the
error you're seeing (although I have never hit the limit myself). Check
the settings for something like this. You may need to increase the
reserved portion to use the remaining space on your drive.
