Changing Program Files location.?
For a fresh install of Windows XP (and Win 7 would be nice).
Is there a way of changing where setup creates your Program Files folder so that ALL software will install onto (let's say) Drive D?
I know it's changeable in the registry, but by the time you can edit the registry, the Program Files folder will have already been created.
I'm guessing a floppy disk during Text Setup, but I don't know how to do these.
(This is so I can use a 2 small Solid State drives in my system (1 for the OS, 1 for the Page file), and a larger SATA for everything else.
Thanks in advance.

Drag the Program File folder with the _right_ mouse button and choose Move when you drop. Windows should follow along.
Should..., but I would still reboot after the drag and then check the registry. And then maybe install something insignificant to see if it aims at D:\Program Files (or whatever).
