Hi Peter
I'm curious, have you actually tried doing this as I believe it won't work. If
you move your profile folders elsewhere, how does windows know how to find them
afterwards?

An easy to get windows to save things where you want them is to create a
folder i.e. your name on your D drive, then go to C:\users\the name of your
profile.
Then select all and go to edit and choose cut.
Then go to the folder you created on the D drive and paste everything in to
there.
From now on windows will save everything there.
If you have to reinstall windows or anything, just do the same again and then
windows will be pointing to all your user files again.

Subject: [access-uk] HD partition on an Acer Aspire 5920
I,
I have an Acer Aspire 5920 laptop running Vista Home premium and Jaws 10.
When I bought it just over a year ago it said it had a 160gb hard drive, it
wasn't until I got it home that I realised this was split into 2 drives, "Acer
c" and "Data d".
Over the past day I have been getting "not enough memory" messages when I
switch on and try and do things and after a while jaws stops working -
presumably as it thinks it doesn't have enough memory to run it and other
applications.
Anyway I've done some cleaning up tonight, taken off some progs I don't need
etc etc and the "Acer c" drive says it's got 7gb free.
I have looked at the "Data D" drive which has over 60gb free.
I'm wondering what else I can do to clear up more memory?
Is there a way of changing default settings so downloaded music, files etc
are saved on the "data" and not C drive - only issue being my user profile
wants to save things on the "Acer c£ drive.
Do I need to consider reformatting the hd to remove the partition altogether?
is this something others have come across with this type of laptop?
All suggestions welcome...within reason!
Cheers,
Phil
