    my girlfriends laptop is a mess... for some odd reason it thinks the local disk drive D is the default hard drive... how can i make it realize that the C drive is the default hard drive? i've tried everything i can think of... but i'm not getting any where... her laptop is windows XP... i'm tying to avoid having to format everything...
