Because of a problem with my C drive, I need to change the default drive of
Windows Media Player - which is C. How do I do that so I can move my music
to the new drive - or at least force WMP to look for the music in my new
drive.

What version of Windows are you running? If it's Windows XP, you can use
Tweak UI to change the location of the Music folder. This tool can be
downloaded from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/D...powertoys.mspx

Launch Tweak UI and navigate to My Computer - Special Folders. Select My
Music and click Change Location.

Regards

Or just change the Rip folder in WMP's Tools:Options. =)
