    Sorry for the newb post. But I am having an issue in installing programs/games etc, to my HD on my Asus G73. They automatically go to my SSD and I do not have that type of memory to use it for all installations. Some programs allow me to switch it to the D(Hardrive) but others like Steam for example have me downloading my games to my SSD, please can anyone tell me how to resolve this, and/or how to make programs automatically install to D. Thank you in advance.

    I posted this in the hardware section first but haven't got much help. Any advice guys. I really would lik to start uninstalling some programs on my SSD and adding them to my HD instead Please help, any and all is appreciated.

    Thanks. I tried to install them in D but I was never prompted for the option. It's fine if the Steam client is there, but not the games. Do you happen to know when they prompt you. Sorry I apologize I just want to cancel this download already and redo it the right way.

    EDIT: Problem resolved(for now you can delete this thread)
