Hang On!
You try to save but can't? Is bryce still open?
Minimize it and check how much room you have left on your hard disk. To do this click on my computer and right click on the C drive. A little menu should pop up and you should select "properties". A window with a little pie chart will open showing used space in blue and free in pink. If you are trying to save a 300mb file into 100mb you will get this generic error.
If you don't have enough room to save try deleting files. Did you download some big trailers like the latest for king arthur at 51 mb? If you have files like this that you can delete and get back later you may want to get rid of them to save your bryce file. If you have a CD burner you can put them on a disk. You should also cd archive any old bryce scenes from last year that are still lurking on your hard drive.
I don't know how big your file is but if you have over 500mb free and still can't save it the problem might be in the file itself. One extreme fix is to go up to the top and make the windows bar appear. go into the edit menu and click on select all. While everything's selected go to ed and select Copy. Go into the file menu and create a new bryce scene without quitting bryce. When the new file opens press paste. This will paste all the objects and lights from the old scene into the new one. You will probably have to reset the camera and the sky settings. Try to save this file and see if it is sucessful.
