Hi,
I dont know much about computers but i have just formated my pc because it had crashed and now am trying to install a few applications. i have two disks on my comp a C: disk which has 120gb and a smaller D: disk which only has 2.6ish gb. everything im downloading is saving to the D: disk which had already almost ran out of disk space.
what do I do?

Install on c drive, If you dont have anything that is important  on your D drive install a larger HD .Make is your slave drive.Is your os on c drive?

[gregster619]

sorry man im terrible with terminology, and useless with this stuff. is there any easier way of putting that?

Formatting won't clean your drive, scrub it clean & re-partition it.   
If you Format it, it's just like deleting things, they're still on the drive.
Scrub it with Zero Fill & re-partition with Disc Genius.

Works for me all the time. ( I've done this with numerous computers.

ok cheers and after ive done that is there a way i can make applications i download save to disk C rather than D?

[xavier]

When you download & click on save it will give you a window> save to c-d-e desktop-ect

[gregster619]

no doesnt give me an option just automatically downloads to D.
Is that because i am using firefox?
there is now only 1mb of free space on disk D and theres a message keep popping up saying this is critical.
theres still 110gb free space on disk C

While in FF: Tools>Options>Main Tab, tell FF where to download files.
