Moving from Mac to PC

Hi folks.

This is not a specific adobe issue but I wondered how those of you that moved from mac to pc have managed your workflow.

I work in indesign and illustrator mostly for creating tenders, I have hundreds of docs strewn across multiple harddrives on the PC.

I am trying my hardest to like Bridge. I have never used it, but search on mac was SO MUCH EASIER than pc.

Anyway in bridge, its no easier. How can I ask bridge to search my entire computer? I am trying to set up some smart collections but can only seem to choose a single harddrive for searching, I have 5?

The reason for considering bridge is the lack of icon previews/quicklook on PC. I have purchased MysticThumbs but this appears to cause more problems than it solves.

Any tips for working in PC would be much appreciated.
