Help.. New PC with a SSD Boot drive


shadowrydr

Recommended Posts

I have just purchased a new computer and it came with a 30 Gig SSD as drive C and is the boot drive. And it has a 2TB D drive.

I am trying to install my games, FSX, FF5, Falcon OF and do not know how to do it.

The games want to write things to the SSD which with the OS and MS 2010 office suite is now full.

How would one go about loading the games to the 2TB D drive?

Any help with detailed explianation or a link to a site to explain this would be most apprieciated.

Thanks
RJ

You will have to uninstall the game (go into Control Panel, Programs) first, then re-install pointing to D:
