the save files will be in ur my documents folder only......u cannot change that, what u can change is the location of the My Documents Folder......to do it...right click on my documents on the desktop and then in the target location box there is a button called "MOVE" click on it and click on a partition which has a lot of space on it, make a new folder on that partition, name it watever u like and then click ok.......

all ur current documents including settings will be moved to that location....most probably u will not find any difference while working.

no dude @Moshel is right. the files in My Documents are "Save Files", so re-instaling the game has no connection with this problm

@cyborg47, do as @Moshel said, move "My Documents" to other folder.

[do not copy paste, follow the steps @Moshel gave]
