Default Changing default location of My Pictures

I want to Change the default location of My pictures in particular and MY
documents in general.

The reason for this is that I installed Vista RC1 on a small but fast SATA
drive only 36gb size but its 10k rpm so very fast and Vista is very
responsive on it. The problem is that in my XP I have over 100gb in My
Documents over 70gb are just my photos. So basically I want to change the
link for My Documents to my old My Documents folder. Is this posible? If so
how?

Best regards
SGHICE

Right click on the My Pictures folder select the Location tab and click move
and browse to the folder you want as My Pictures. I selected my old XP
folder.
