    Hi all.

    I've just upgraded to a PC with XP Media Centre Edition and Since my intention was always to use the primary HD to store the OS and main programs and a 2nd HD to use as a Video recorder I was wondering if anyone has a clue how?

    I can't see anything in the MCE setup that lets me choose where to record to so I'm assuming that it will record TV to a folder in My Documents. Can I just move My Documents to the new drive, where do I change Windows default location for different objects?

    Example set up -

    HD 1 - (2 partitions)
    C:\ OS
    D:\ Games and Music (i.e. things that won't change that often)

    HD 2 - (1 partition)
    E:\ Video (and in this case My Documents)

    If anyone knows how to do this in normal XP then any help you can give would be great.

    Cheers,

    Alex
