Where should I install Office 2003

Baha

Where should I place the application and related data?

My desire is to get best application. Performance using
primarily MS Office 2003. Where should I install the
application programs and its related data on a new
partitioned disk drive? I wish to keep the C Drive for
only the Windows 2000 OS?
1.Should I put the programs in the C Drive along with the
OS and the data on a separate drive for easy backup? Or
2.Should I put the Office 3000 programs and their related
data on a separate drive?

Your advice is much appreciated.

As a general rule there are advantages to having data on a seperate
drive/partition, namely you can format the sys partition with no loss of
data. Thats not to say, no need to backup.

You can place the installation anywhere you wish but be advised that there
are several MB of files that will need to go to your boot partition.
Installing to a second partition/hard drive may be a good idea for space
saving, but if you need to reinstall your OS, you will need to reinstall
Office anyway since the boot partition has essential system files.
