I can't install my rift driver on my pc!(Oculus requires 2.87 GB on an internal ...)

hi friends
I want to install my Oculus rift device on my laptop ( Win 10-64x), my GPU and  CPU is a little weaker than Oculus suggestions..(gforce 950 gtx + intel core i 7 - 2.60 GHz)
I think there is no problem on my internet connection and i have enough free space in my hard disk!
C  : 86 Gig free
D :  53 Gig free
E : 16 Gig free
F : 183 Gig free
G : 384 GiG free
but when I want to install Oculus driver(OculusSetup.exe), it shows me below message:
Oculus requires 2.87 gig on an internal drive to set up. to continue please make sure you have sufficient space on an eligible drive, or visit Oculus support ..
is it required to make some partitions as basic ones? I think my partitions are dynamic but i have so many files and projects on my laptop and can,t delete my partitions to make them as basic ones! because reinstalling the windows by it's applications is so difficult and so I want a perfect way. can you help me:smile:

I don't think the Rift works with laptop GPUs anyway.

You're on an uphill struggle methinks.

are you sure I can't run on my laptop? because  it is not very weak, and I can play strong graphical games on it! also I have installed OculusSetup.exe on my work pc which is very weaker than my laptop!!!
I think there is a little mistake on it! like making dynamic partitions or ...!

I would recommend backing up your laptop and doing a fresh install. Perhaps not with so many partitions 🙂

this is the model information of my laptop: 
Asus N551jx - B
I thinks it's not a basic device. I have problem just in the first step and it must be about my partitions settings(Dynamic -> Basic partition settings), I'm stuck in the first step of installation! and want to try to install it by current Win os because I have installed so many applications and settings and I can't do it right now!
i know I must prepare a powerful PC for my purpose! but I want to test it in my laptop(if I can!)
but I don't know if this job can help me to install OculusSetup.exe??!!

thanks a lot... as I told, I can't set it on my current laptop because it has so many applications and settings...
I thinks the best suggestion is to preparing a powerful PC by oculus requirements and making it's partition as Basic!
good luck 😕 ...
