Thanks for all your replies guys. Seth, I literally moved my entire WoW folder over to the D: partition so I'm hopeful it will look there when applying/looking for the upgrade. I haven't actually played WoW on there yet as I prefer to play it on my main lappy which I had custom built and is much better to use all round. I let the kids play WoW on the Acer. They know better than to touch 'Daddy's Laptop' :cool:. Thanks again

Dalo, Actually all I did in the end (and was amazed it worked OK :D) was go into my C: drive, highlight the WoW folder and opt to move it to the D: drive. After initially getting a message to say it would take 21 hours :eek: it eventually only took a couple of minutes and all my WoW files now appear in the D: partition and there is now 7.9 extra gigs of space in the C: drive. I have not actually tried to play WoW yet on there so I hope the blinking thing recognises I have moved it. Thanks for all your help. No doubt I'll be back. Dave

Thanks form your quick replies guys but as I said I'm not all that savvy with the inner gubbins of PC's. I think I would like to xfer my WoW files to the D: drive. How would I go about doing this? Thanks

Hi All, I was downloading the new World of Warcraft patch onto my spare lappy which is a cheapo Acer running Vista Home Basic that I picked up from Comet. Halfway through the download I got the message my hard drive was full and the download stopped. I know it has an 80gb HD and I've only had it since May 08 so there was no way it would be full as I only use it for basic wordprocessing and the kids play WoW on it occasionally. I checked it out and it turns out the HD has been partitioned into 2 drives of 40gb each, C: (called 'Acer'), and D: (called 'Data'). All my files etc had been written to the C: drive which was 90 odd % full hence the problem. How do I either a, delete the D: drive and let the C: drive take all the HD space (which would be my preferred option)? or decrease the size of the D: drive to enable the C: drive to take up the slack? Please could any answers be in layman speak as I am not too clued up on the inner workings of a PC. Cheers Dave
