Check out the app "junction"
It's function was previously available if you buy the Win2k resource kit.
It makes a folder able to be referenbced as a completely different folder.

I have 7 hard drives in my pc, this is therefore a godsend.

side issue. You could always mount the some of the harddrives as folders onto one of the main drives. Gives you a similar effect, well sorta.

i HAVE BEEN MOUNING A DRIE AS A FOLDER. tHIS HOWEVER IS MUCH MORE FLEXIBLE. The drive as folder is not implemented well; for one programs can't tell there is free space on the mount, and you cant delete fodlers without holding shift.
I will splain the problem wit the lqck of reproted frees[ace.
My f: was full, so I bought another drive and mounted the new drive as f:\games.

I got o install 1 2 gig game, with 60 gig free on the f:\games drive. the game refuses to install because f: reports as only having 1 gig free.
