Hi guys, I am almost out of space in my hard drive, and there are still games that I want to buy... is there any difference between installing on steam or installing through dvd?

The games are downloaded to your hard drive so eventually you will run out of space the more games you buy.
That still doesn't solve the "out of space" problem though. Best thing for the poster....new bigger HDD, they are cheap these days...Backup your steam games and put em on an external Harddrive or dvd discs.

Open up your PC and plug in an additional drive costing around £40

This. Windows can use as many HDDs as your case can handle and them some. You can then uninstall some games and reinstall them on the new drive and install new games on it as you buy them.
Purchase a new HDD like Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB. It should hold you over for a while.Elann2008I've personally have had bad experiences with Samsung HDDs...

What do you mean it doesnt solve the out of space problem?
Back up all your steam games you have downloaded and delete teh ones you dont play. That would make tons of space free.. I do it all the time, just beat DA2, so I backed it up on my external HD and deleted it off my computers HD. Next tim I want to play DA2 again its right there ready.
100GB left of a 500GB HD is now 375GB left after backing up some games that Ive already beat,fixed my OUT OF SPACE issue so I have no idea what your on about.
Got 1.3 TB left on one External HD and about 200GB left from a 500GB external. When ever my HD on my pc gets below 100GB I put stuff onto one of my external HD's, no issues at all, problem solved.
