My hard drive is pretty much full, so I wanted to purge a bunch of hands. When I tried, this message popped up...

Same here. At least I made an upgrade to PG8.3.3 but it doesn't help. Still if I try to purg only 80k hands I get timeouts. HM version 1.06.02.

Theres not enough space left on the drive to do a purge as ironic as that sounds it needs to use space while deleting the files.

Maybe try using Add & Remove Programs in the control panel to remove unneccessary programs to free up enough space to do a purge. Also try doing smaller purges by doing it by date a bit at a time.

I presume you have the exact same problem since you posted in this thread. Have you tried freeing up some space like i suggested?

Ok, there is now plenty of space to purge some of the hands. I did a few small purges, and it worked fine. When I tried to purge about 150,000 hands I got these errors...

Sorry, still working on this. Some people have no issues purging 500K hands and other have issues with 150K like you. Doing a Full Vacuum through pgadmin before trying this would likely help out a lot.
