    I have just moved to Win 7 64bit from XP and I think I like it! My question is this, I have a 120Gb SSD with the OS installed and where I am going to load my applications, I also have a 1 Tb HDD where I intend to keep all my data documents, pictures music etc. What is the best way to setup the HDD directories so that they appear in the library when I open my computer?

    Thanks!

    i opened the properties of each folder, and moved the location, it sets up the libraries accordingly

    be sure to create the folders on the other drive, and point to those folders

    I have done that and I now seem to have two locations in the library showing exactly the same contents?

    In the exploerer window right click any of the Libraries (Documents, Videos, etc), select 'Properties', click the the 'Include folder' button and add any folder you wish, simples.
