I need to be free in choosing the root path.
Is there no other solution for that problem?

thanks

Subversion works perfectly fine on Windows, within the limits of Windows itself (which is what you're running into here).

Can you check out at a deeper level? You're checking out from a directory above the trunk - this implies to me that you need to check out trunk, tags and branches (assuming your repository has them).
Could you check trunk out directly to a directory off the root of your drive (to shorten the path)?
