Not only are you right, but you have clearly delineated the alternative position.

wow, and i thought my spelling was bad, lol

I've tried all of those suggestions that is why I posted.

so why didn't you say that in your first post

Window explorer is all you got to move folder. Unless there is other File management software to do what you want. You can drag and drop a folder to another partition or hard disk. To me is the try and tested copy and paste.

re-read all post,op,wants to change location of system folders

try opening photo shop,open the file in question ,then go to file in toolbar and chose save as and save file lets say to the desktop for quick access , close photo shop ,go to desktop and click on saved file ,see if it opens in photoshop

Photoshop.

what about the rest of my ?'s
did you create the file with fotoshop ,what is the file extention of the file in question or is it more that one file

might help if we knew the program and filetype,where the file came from ,did you create the file with the program or download the file

found this for moving my documents folder

my music folder and my pictures shold move same way

note = i haven't tried this so use at your own risk

Yeah, like usual I left out info

yeah you sure did ! lol

not sure about doing it in win7 but i useto change it way back in win98 and xp ,you needed to change it in the registry .do a google search on changine folder locations not moving folders

for such problems i use ccleaner,run the regestry clean section and remove all it finds.

Hi,never heard of the big or little endian so reading a bit about it was interesting ,seems like you answer may be that windows OS dose not use big -endian
assuming you didn't do a google search for an answer i will post what i read, hope it helps

If you more than one HDD then you may go for making on "Master HDD" and other one "Slave HDD"
Now by doing this you can easily move folders in between them.

Hope this helps

no need for master /slave in win7,sata [my assumption]drives don't even have master/slave settings

you need to remove the harddrive and use a external device to hook it to another computer i fit will not boot to safe mode[hitting f8 on bootup]

i would unplug all wire connections inside and out of the box,and video card and ram chips and and re-seat them

change the briteness setting on the lapyop maybe,mine is done with keys fn+f8
dark spots are a factor with lcd screens unlss it a led lit lcd

so did you run tool,if so did it see the drive to scan it,if no,then do what i do with drive like that,toss it away

Just an idea . . . can i check my F11 key actually works some how? Thinking it may be defective?

yes,open internet explorer browser ,hit f11 it should change IE to full screen

just theroy never actually done it ,if you put the drive in your laptop and add windows i386 content,[i386 files would have to on a seperate partition it think to install xp on other partition ]maybe you could then boot the f8 option and chose safe mode with command promp ,and then find you way to what you added and run setup from there.
also ,im wondering if it would be possiable to access i386 file on a thumb drive from the command prompt

hi, i would use something to cut away the metal seperating the two back slots ,i have tin snips i use or hacksaw blade,photo shows a dell tower but you should get the idea

my opinion ,then answer is no,and yes you leave the battery in the laptop when plugged into power .
when new you should charge battery /unplug,use till battery dies,regharge/kill maybe 3 times .then just use and charge as needed

what method do you use to shut down windows when you are finished
