Installing Ke in slave hard drive

[Rocker911]

My master hard drive is almost full (only 450mb left >_<) i uninstalled ke like a a week ago,tried reinstalling but something went wrong and i suddenty didnt have any space left to instal it.i Bought another hard drive to set it as slave tried installing ke in it but i get the message that theres no free space in C:/ it gives me the message in the reading package part of installation, so i thought the installer extracts the files to a temporary folder in C:/ so is there anyway to make the installer extracts these in my new drive(E:/)?

first, clean up your first hard drive. you should have at least 5 gb free on the sys disk :P

second, when you install the client, it asks where you wanna install it . change C: to E:.

Tell me if it doesnt work

:wacko: as i said i only have 450mb on the first hard drive thats why i bought the other one, but i guess when extracting the contents of the installer it extracts them to a temp folder in C:/ i need that to be done in E:/

Thing is...the old hard drive is 4gb thats why my i bought the new one :P My dad messed up and instead of uninstalling some programs he deleted them so that space got lost...so one question, can i move Program files folder w/o making any dmg to them??

No that will screw up every program you have installed.

When you open a program, it searches for the root directory of where its installed.

Your PC will be trying to open, take internet explorer for example, from:

C:Program FilesInternet Explorer

when infact you cut and pasted it to E:Program FilesInternet Explorer.

The only way you can move program files is by uninstalling the program, and reinstalling the program on the new harddrive.

You can change the target of a program by going into the properties, but i don't think this would work for all programs, and it would be EXTREMELY tedious work.

You said its only 4gb harddrive, you can't exactly have that much installed on it...just backup important files to the new slave harddrive and format the master harddrive.
