I got a new Vortex III laptop with two drives today. A C: SSD and a D: HDD. All the My Documents/My Pictures/etc. were under C:/Users/MY NAME, and I've wanted to move all these folders to have a defaul location in D:. I've been using this guide (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310147) to do so, and after getting confused at first (I made my whole D: drive my My Documents Folder, but then somehow fixed this!), I've now managed to move over the folders I want into D:/MY NAME'S Documents.
Somehow though, My Pictures has got lost. When I click MY NAME, it still shows the My Documents/etc. folders on that page, and when I click them it jumps to the D: drive, but My Pictures is not present in the MY NAME folder. It's still in the D: drive, but when I R click --> Properties it, it doesn't give me a Location tab to click on, whereas it does for all the other folders.
What's happened here? Why can't I undo this and make My Pictures default to C:/Users again?
If I use the system recovery disc I created soon after starting up my computer for the first time, will that take my computer back to the state before I started messing around with folders? Or will it not affect documents stuff? If not, is there a way I can completely reset a PC Specialist computer?
