Hi dwheeler865,

The root directory is the drive letter of the partition on which the
operating system is installed. For example, if XP is installed on C drive,
then the root directory would be C:\

Just thought I might add that if you are looking to locate the subdirectory
where Windows is installed (usually C:\WINDOWS for XP), go to Start>Run and
key in %WINDIR% then click on OK or hit ENTER. A Windows Explorer window
will open with the path to this subdirectory in the Address field.
