docta13 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Right now I have one 80GB HD with XP, Vista RC1, and Ubuntu installed. I want to keep this HD specifically for OS usage. I am about to add a large capacity HD to my desktop for all files (music, pictures, work). In looking at XP, I know "My Documents" (My Music, My Pictures, etc.) are all pointing to the HD on which the OS is installed. Can someone tell me how to set things up so when, for instance, I click on Start -> My Documents.....My Documents is actually logically assigned to my 2nd HD? I want it so I can have all the sub-categories of My Documents be directly placed on the 2nd (non-OS) HD. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mps69_1999 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I'm not sure if this is what you want to do but here goes. Click start -> Right Click "my documents" -> Properties -> Move -> Select where you want it directed to -> Ok. My Webpage Googletalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom419 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I found that if you want the doc folder password protected you need to put it on the same drive as the operating system. I have to hard drives, each with 2 partitions. I put my Doc folder on my 2nd partition, on the first drive. I am running Xp Home edition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
