    I have 2 drives on my computer C drive that contains my vista and every program on my computer and a D drive that says data drive. Well everytime I would install a program it would go to my C drive and now its about full and I dont know what to do. Under my computer this is what it says Acer C: 692mb of 32.5 GB free and data D: says 31.9GB free of 32.2 GB. Now I just did a back up files and backed them up in D drive. But how do I campletely move then from one to the other and what can I move and what has to stay?

    When installing programs, always select "Custom" install. It'll let you sellect install destination.

    As for moving stuff, you can only move data. Programs have to be reinstalled to change their location.
