Hey Rip.

No, I'm pretty sure its not. You need to install them to the new drive.

Hi Riptorn,

It would cause all sorts of bad problems if you did. Instead as Lordbob also posted, if the program has the option to select where you want to install it, then install the individual program to the D: drive that way.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
