Hey
Basically I bought an SSD to put Windows 7 on along with some of my most used applications.
However, I want to some how put my users folder and program files folder onto my 500GB HD. I’ve tried multiple times to mess with the registry settings but it doesnt seem to work..? I’ve also tried an application but that just meant when I restarted my PC it diddn’t recognise my user account meaning I couldnt log in at all forcing me to reinstall again…
Any ideas? I basically want only OS & a coupel of aps on SSD while having my desktop/users/prorgam files on my 500gb.
Thanks!
