    Hi,

    Is there any error message displayed while attempting to reinstall a game or app? Also what console is it and is there any external hard drive plugged in?

    Harddrive questions

    You can't disable the internal hard drive. Go ahead and attach an external hard drive and move all you games/apps/saves to it and run your games from the external drive.
