Changing system environment variables

I know I've done this before on a Vista system, but on a new install I can't
find any way to change the system environment variables: I need to add
something to the 'path' variable.

Please help!

system properties dialog window
advanced tab
environment variables button

Thanks. Obvious when you know where to look (I must have been there and not
seen the button ). Meanwhile, someone pointed me to the registry entry
(not easy to find) and I edited that.

Guys I'm not sure if this is a related topic. But my laptop has twin
hard drives. By default Windows downloads and saves files to the same
drive that the OS is installed on.

Where and how can I make a change so that the first drive (C is "OS
only" and the second drive (D is where all user files and data are
stored?

And once I've made this change, will "save" operations point to the D:
(files and data) drive by default?

I'm running Vx64.

Thanks!
