Ldraw and all the apps will RUN from any drive but the ALL IN ONE INSTALLER I think was deisgned to work on the C drive.  It installs the applications onto whatever drive windows is on but does its checking on the C drive to move some of the files which is what may be causing the issue.

You could download and install the applications manually which just takes time but won't give you an issue like the installer is right now.

 1. On my laptop, I have no room on C:
 2. On my desktop, because of the SATA/PATA drives, Windows installs on G: or H: !  I haven't found any way around it!

 Actually, I'm using VMWare, which runs full Windows XP, so it doesn't
 matter that VMWare is running under Linux.
