My local drive, with all the space is my 'C' drive. When
I attempt to install a prgram from CD, it automatically
goes to the 'D' system drive which has a much smaller
allocation of space. How can I change this so that the
installation points to my larger 'C' local drive?

Hi,

Start/run regedit, navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion

Look in the right pane at ProgramFilesDir and see what the value is.
--=20
