I have a Dell computer and I recently had to wipe everything and reload Windows Vista which went OK. However, every time I go to download a new bit of software, say mcafee or messenger for example, it tries to download it to Dells recovery drive D; but the problem is this drive/partition/whatever is full as it is quite small and as I understand only exists to hold the recovery files. My C: drive on the other hand is sitting there empty but programmes insist on trying to save to the full recovery drive D. Any help?
