i have been doing some research and they say change the My Documents location and i did but when i went to download Chrome it saved to the SSD
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome

if i cant figure this out i think it would just to be best to just get rid of the SSD and just use my 1T Hard Drive for everything

no,no,no,no, don't do that an SSD is a fab bit of kit to have in any new build. Programmes are fine to download and install the the SSD, it will allow you to get round the PC faster. If you have all the files you download going on there then you can just transfer them after, but it should not be a hard job to redirect the files to the HDD. Just play around with it for a little while it shouldn't take you long to figure out why they are going to the SSD

I would imagine it is because you installed your Operating System onto your SSD hard drive...

Well i have been working on this for about 3 days now and been looking up tuts for how to fix this problem but nothing seams to work and i just dont think its worth having the SSD since the OS is on the SSD that thats were all the files are going so im just using the 1T Hard Drive. Unless sombody is willing to teamview me and like to help me out and knows what they are doing them just PM me and i will pay sombody to do it for me on paypal
