That folder doesn't exist. I'll be formatting, and installing to, unpartitioned space.
not once have you said that which i told you to do you

new Windows (which Setup thinks is the first and only) will have its home on C:\.
Which can't be done until your mess up the current install.(next part could be wrong) even then you will already have C:\ partition.
TRY Deleting the boot.ini. that tells windows were the start partition is. i can't remember if you delete it does it pick up the C:\ drive if it doesnt then you might be able to preform windows install in the un partitioned space.
simple method. remove your hard drive install windows on different one. put in old drive after new install.

I have a full ass and plan to sit on it stably.
ha yes because all your current programs will work fantatsically well with brand new O/S install.
all you do is back up downloaded files, saved files, favourites.
and format your partition that has windows on it. programs are simple to install.
your setup is the wrong way as i said i would never do. i dont think many others would either.
i sure if you ring microsoft and ask them they tell u to go back to sleep. and any other computer technician would say the same to you.
this will be my last post unless you have question worth answering.
P.S if i thot the way you want to do this was a good way i would have personnally done it my self every six months install of fresh format and reinstall. Plus you would here others all over the interent recomending it.
