Installing Flash on hard drive F:

I'm trying to install the most recent version of Flash, but it keeps saying that I have insufficient space. I tried to do the virtual C: drive as indicated in one of the other threads, but my C: drive is my zip drive. The computer will not allow me to create a virtual C: drive. It keeps saying that the C: drive is invalid. My main drive is F: (I don't know how it became F:). Any way around installing on C:?
Thanks, Anna.

    I solved my own problem. I changed my zip drive from c: to b: I right clicked my computer, clicked on manage, clicked on disk management, right clicked on the drive I wanted to change, clicked on change drive letter and paths, and changed the drive name to b:. Then I created the virtual c: drive as suggested in a different thread. At that point I was able to install the new version of Flash. Now my children can go to disneychannel.com and nickjr.com with no problems. Wow, my kids are lucky to have me. Haha. Whew, it only took a few hours of online research to get this done. The install only took a few seconds.

    I couldn't find anything else to do with my problem...
    It seems as though the flash installer thinks my harddrive is F:/ , yet it knows it isn't?

    It's installing folders on an F: drive which does not exsist, but it says its extracting to C:...
    wtf?
    It just wont work/be installed because every time I try to install it it does nothing....

    This is actually an issue with the installer that we're aware of. In the future it'll be a little smarter. For right now you have to install it to C:...
