Installing to D drive? Overriding installation wizard?

My C drive has 4.88 GB and only has 11%. The D drive has 23.06 GB and is virtually free. the full C drive is causing my computer to slow and virtual memory problems. For example, when I download itunes, it does not allow to change drive destination - it automatically places it in C - this is similar across many programs I removed from my C drive to free up space and to place on the D drive. Is there a way to override the install wizard? I really do not want to reinstall XP to remove the partition; nor do I wish to spend more $ on ram when the D drive has so much space.





Thanks! Much appreciated!

If it is physically only 1 Hard Drive split into C: and D: I recommend Partition Magic

Partition Magic allows you to create, resize and merge partitions on your hard drive without destroying data. Partition Magic helps organize and protect your data, run multiple operating systems, convert file system types and fix partition table errors.
Reply:If I understand you right you would like the virtual memory going onto the D:, if so follow these instructions:

If you just want to have your programs themselves use the D: for your music etc.. try going into the settings in itunes.
