whats the difference between the C-drive & the D-drive??

[Rob]

just looked and my "c" drive is nearly full and the "d" drive seems to have nothing on it, so cud i use it to store movies and music..etc
there is also an E drive for cd's and dvd's

I depends. Your hard drive could have been split up into two different drives, and the E drive could then the the CD drive in it. However, you did not mention another drive, so then the D drive is probably your CD/DVD drive.

We cant tell you dude, we dont have enough information.

C drive is always a hard drive.

D drive can be another partition of the same hard drive (basicially you take your hard drive and split it in two, making C drive and D drive)

D drive can be another hard drive (you have two hard drives in your computer, C is the first hard drive, D is the second)

D drive can be your DVD and or CD player. (you put DVDs or CDs into D drive)

Soooooooo.....is D drive listed under hard drive or removable storage? if its listed under hard drive, you can cut and paste files from c to d
If D is listed under removable media, its your dvd player, and no, you cant. Get a bigger hard drive.

yes, its an extended partition you even use it as a backup.
