Either way, you can put most things wherever you like. When you're installing a program you can usually specify where to. If you make a Program Files folder on D: you can install stuff to there instead of onto C:.
Likewise, you could make yourself a folder there for photos, videos or whatever else, and save stuff onto that drive.
You could probably give the C: drive a good spring cleaning with ccleaner, spybot and all that as well. Uninstall anything she doesn't use, clean up temporary files etc, get rid of any spyware that's accumulated, defrag the hard drive... A wee bit of maintenance every now and again will keep it in good running order, and the machine will run a bit faster once you give it a good cleanup.
Hi and thanks for you quick reply mrlipring I have used the defrag and done a spring clean and thats what i am left with i wanted to put Adobe photoshop on the laptop how would i get that to install onto the D drive and how would i put a Program Files folder on the D drive. (windows Vista home)
