Greetings All!
Would anyone happen to know how I can change the defaul location of the My Videos folder from C:\Documents And Settings\Owner\My Documents\My videos to the addtional 160GB hard drive (G that I purchased for editing and saving mpeg files? Unofortunately, by default, the ArcSoft Showbiz DVD2 software that came with my HP DVD writer saves the mpeg part of project files to the My Videos folder on the C: drive that is only 40Gb and the .sbz project files save to my G: drive that point to the My Videos folder for thier mpeg's. Thing I dont understand is why Showbiz lets me change the location for saving the .sbz project files to the 160 Gb G: drive, but it saves the mpeg's to the My Videos folder on C: dirve or wherever Windows XP is installed on the particular computer.
Please help! -the only tangible solution that I can think of at the moment is to switch the drives and make the 160Gb drive the primary drive and install XP on there, but you know how much work that is? -not only that but I really don't feel like having to back everything up to DVD's to do it, part of the reason for purchasing this addional drive, and the nice thing about it, is that if the need should arise for me to back-up program files etc. I can just back them up to the G: drive without the worry of removable media failure or error.
Thanks in adavance for your help!
