    Get tweakui v 1.33. Do a search on google for it and use it to change your My Documents, Favorites and others to another place. Also will do other stuff.

    I would create three folders on D: first.
    D:\Program Files
    D:\Graphics
    D:\Data
    When you install a program, you are asked to install onto C:\Programs Files, it is a simple matter to change the C to D, or choose the appropiate folder, by clicking on Browse during the setup program.
    Note: it would be better to leave the Internet Explorer and OE installed on the C: in their default locations, that is where most of their files are going to end up anyway.

    Hello,
    I want to thank you guys & ladies for your help. My 3 week old HDD crashed yesterday. It was a total dump. I contacted Maxtor, and they are going to replace it. Thanks again.
