    Can you not drag them from the external hard drive onto the C: in windows explorer?

    Can you tell me how many drive letter you see iin windows explorer and what size they are? Right click on a drive letter and click properties. You don't want to fill c drive too much as it needs space to alllow the computer to work properly.
