how the heck do I get my swap file onto the other drive? Just give me a run down on how to do it.

Getting the swapfile on another drive is described elsewhere in this thread but you might want to partition the D: drive so the swap file has it's own slightly larger partition. If this is the first partition on the drive it will also be accessed more quickly (the drive's R/W heads don't have to move so far). A dedicated partition on the second physical drive is also the best place to store a Norton Ghost image of your WinXP and Programs partition as described in this post. The Radified link within also describes the swap file partition.
