my documents are on a different drive, how do I store FF bookmarks on this different drive?
I set windows XP to store My Documents on Drive E:\ So if the computer crashes and I had to re-install XP I wouldn't loose my documents. And that's what happened and I just re-installed XP and changed it again to use drive E:\ for My Documents, and now I still have all of My Documents from before. --- But I don't have my settings and bookmarks for FF.
Could this info for FF be on drive E:\ ? Or does FF not let itself get re-directed to my main: My Documents folder. Can I tell FF where to place and find its settings?

Sorry, Firefox bookmarks (alone) can't moved to a different drive. But it is possible to move the entire Profile folder to a different location.

It might be better to set up some kind of backup routine to copy your Firefox data to the second drive. Otherwise, you still have a single point of failure...
If you backup your personal data regularly then you always have a backup that you can restore in case of problems.

Note that Firefox still uses the profiles.ini file in the original location in Documents and Settings, so even if you would locate the Firefox profile folder on another drive you would still have to restore the profiles.ini file or create a new profile and choose the profile folder location on the other drive to make Firefox use it.
