A Few Possible Reg Hacks?


Recommended Posts

I got a new computer this weekend. My brother put it together for me, and he partitioned the HD in a way I don't like. He made it such that I have just about no space on the C partition. What I want to do is "move" where it thinks the desktop and My Documents folders are to a different partition.0 I am on XP Pro. Is this possible? If so, how?

Another thing: How do I assign a hotkey to bring up the screensaver?

AMEND:!: I am using BBLean if that is important.

if possible considering it's a new install, I'd go with reinstalling windows to get your partition size the way you'd want it....XP can be a bit of a pig and will keep growing, system restore files can take up 12% of your drive by default, doesn't seem like much but can max out a small drive/partition pretty quick.

but if you wanna do it the way you mentioned, get

TweakUI

once intalled, you can change locations by: >expand "my computer">special folders, right pane gives you a drop down of all the system folders that can be changed.
