kind of a double header of questions here.

1. Is there any way to split the quick launch bar from the main taskbar
completely as I want all the games I've got installed not to be taking up
space on the desktop.

2. Can system restore be set NOT to use a external (or a slave) hard drive
to store to as I'm currently using that drive for
game/pictures/documents/installers that I've downloaded and I don't want the
space to be wasted when there is plenty of space on the main hard drive
