Q: Time Capsule won't backup 2nd computer.

I have a Time Capsule 802.11n (3rd Gen). I have been backing up my Macbook Pro for over a year.  Recently when I tried to backup my wife's desktop Mac, Time Machine gave me this message: "This backup is too large for the backup disk".  Time Capsule contines to accept new backups from my laptop by deleting earlier data. Any suggestions how to handle this?

Time Capsule 802.11n (3rd Gen), Mac OS X (10.7.5)
