Changing default location of "Documents and Settings Folder"

I would like to move my "Documents and Folder" Directory
to another drive on my System. It defaults to C: and I do
not no if this is possible. It is possible to change the
target of the MY Documents folder by going into
properties and altering the Target. Is there an option
similar to this for the Documents and Folders Setting?
Thanks for your help.

Oops. I read too fast. :-/

No, you can't relocate that structure. I'd love too myself since I not only
have multiple users, but I multiboot as well.

The only way to change the D&S folder location is with an unattended
install. But you could read through my article on user shell folders and
move the ones that contain OS-independent user data to another
partition. I do this on a multi-boot system and it works well for me.
