I've read several posts regarding the drive designation C: or F:. My
problem involves these drive designations but in the reverse.
My drive C: has a problem. I added another drive and it is F:. I want
to move everything off drive C: and put it on drive F:. When I tried
to do this with my HP printer software, the only drive they allow is
C:. Is there a way to override this limitation so I can install the
software on drive F:?

F: Drive is a 20GB Western Digital 5400 RPM. C: Drive is a 200GB
Western Digital 5400 RPM. My OS is Windows XP Pro. Does this make a
difference in how I might override HP's limitation of installing
software on C: Drive only?

Is this a laptop or a desktop? How old is the computer?
