Install Office 2003 to drive other that 'C'

[Mackman]

I built a new computer running Windows XP Pro. Everything is working fine.
I want to install Office 2003 on 'D' drive because the 'C' drive partition is
full. When I type in the path for 'D' drive the installer tells me there is
not enough room on 'C' drive and stops. I have tried many times to install
on 'D' drive but it always tells me that 'C' is full and stops. I set up my
hard drive with 5 gigs for the OS on 'C' drive, 145 gigs on 'D' drive for all
the other programs and 150 gigs on 'F' drive for back up and video and music
storage. I reallize now a 5 gig 'C' drive was not enough and am trying to
avoid reformatting the hard drive.

Any help would be appreciated.

You've used Custom Install?
How much free space is on C:? it maybe not enough space for even temp files.
If so clean out temp files, IE temp files/cookies etc. You may have to do
this manually as disk cleanup wont run if too little space.
10gb would be ideal for c:
You can manipulate partitions with a third party tool, eg Partition Magic

Hi Mackman,

While the major portions of MS Office can be installed on a separate drive there are parts that go in the Windows folders and the
Common Files area that are placed on the same drive as Windows.

=========
I built a new computer running Windows XP Pro. Everything is working fine.
I want to install Office 2003 on 'D' drive because the 'C' drive partition is
full. When I type in the path for 'D' drive the installer tells me there is
not enough room on 'C' drive and stops. I have tried many times to install
on 'D' drive but it always tells me that 'C' is full and stops. I set up my
hard drive with 5 gigs for the OS on 'C' drive, 145 gigs on 'D' drive for all
the other programs and 150 gigs on 'F' drive for back up and video and music
storage. I reallize now a 5 gig 'C' drive was not enough and am trying to
avoid reformatting the hard drive.

Any help would be appreciated. >>
