My computer is set up with a partitioned drive -- the c: partition has
15 gigs, the remaining e: is 80 or some such.

But everything defaults to c: so we're quickly out of space.

How do I set my photos, my music, etc. so they fill up the e: drive and
keep the c: clear just for aplications?

I'm running XP with the service pack 2.

Any other advice on disk management would be great.

Thanks

Not an expert or anything but if you right click on your My Documents
folder on your desktop you can move it from there HTH
