so when/if I d/l something is it going to go to the system or the boot
To clarify the use of terms you might want to read this: Microsoft's definitions for system volume and boot volume.And so,"system" = This is where you will see the boot.ini, ntdetect.com, ntldr, etc. "boot" = This is where you will see the Documents and Settings, Program Files and Windows folder.That means, if you download something, it will go to "boot" partition/volume, ie "C:\Documents and Settings\Longgone\My Documents\Downloads".

At the command prompt line (not to be confused w/ the run command line), type the following 2 commands without the quotes:"set systemdrive /?""set systemroot /?"The latter will tell you where the Windows system files have been installed.
