Hello everyone.I am having a issue with my computers memory.The hard drive my computer came with is in 2 seperate parts in the "My Computer" folder.The first half is where my compute attempts to put everything.It has 1.48 GB remaining out of a original 71.3 GB, and the other half has 54.2 GB remaining out of 71.8 GB. I also have another hard drive with a total of 37.2 GB.Basically if I download something I just move it to my larger hard drive, but recently I wanted to download a larger file than what my smaller hard drive has left, and it wont let me do it(obviously).I dont know what to do about it.The file it to large for that single hard drive alone, but my others could easily handle it, but my computer just wont let my use those hard drives instead, and I dont want to tamper with the things my computer comes with because I may mess something up.Is their a way to tell my computer to use the other hard drives instead?
If you're downloading off the Internet using Firefox/IE/etc, why not just do save as and then select the other drive?If you're downloading from a download manager/torrent/P2P software, simply change the default directory where the folders are stored.
QuoteIf you're downloading off the Internet using Firefox/IE/etc, why not just do save as and then select the other drive?I do...if I can, but its the other method you mentioned below.QuoteIf you're downloading from a download manager/torrent/P2P software, simply change the default directory where the folders are stored.Its a torrent through limewire, so how would I change the default directory?
I haven't used limewire for maybe 8 years now, but I'm sure it's in the settings somewhere.Check for something similar to "save files to", in "options" or "file paths" or ... Basically if you can find the box where it points to your smaller drive, you should be able to then use that box and change it to your bigger hard drive.Something like:http://wiki.limewire.org/index.php?title=User_Guide_InstallationSee Step 5
