The original My Music can be dragged anywhere.

What I want to do now is to use this new folder as 'My Music' as opposed to the old 'My Music' folder within 'My Documents', I know this is possible as I did it once before on a previous PC, can anyone remind me please? I am running Windows XP with SP2. Thanks Keith |

the contents and leaves the original folder and contents, so clicking on 'My Music' on the start menu simply opens up the original folder. "Mark L. Ferguson" wrote in message ...
