Thank you for your quick response.
If you look at the provided picture it is looking at Drive G...Codemeter which is my dongle. It has nothing to do with the size of the virtual drive...well at least for the time being.

If you noticed that your Windows virtual machine takes a lot of disk space, use this freeware tool to check its contents.
Note: You have to install Scanner application mentioned in the second part of the article
 
Hi Chris sorry for delay in response. I have been away.
I have upped the VM to 1TB. I have a 2.5TB fusion Harddrive. I am still getting the same message appear. As mentioned before I don't think it has anything to do with the VM as such. Windows keeps assuming the dongle (USB key) is a storage device..thus the message I get. Please refer to earlier sent image......John
