Thanks Cody, what I know the D: drive is used to keep the original OS set up files and is used to restore the computer to its original state. I have a Dell Laptop and my D: drive is for that purpose. What I also know is that each manufacturer provides a utility to make a DVD of the OS files on D: which you can use to restore your system from this DVD (actually is 2-3 DVD's). The wife has an HP Laptop and I did make 3 DVD's from the D: drive using the HP utility and it worked fine when I need it.
To my knowledge, when you use the manufacturer utility to restore the computer to its original state, the process does not take place on the D: drive but rather on the C: and replaces all existing OS files without damaging any personal files. I have done this on my Dell and the wife's HP Laptops. But perhaps Lenovo does it differently and that is why I ask.
When my friend clicks the icon in the taskbar, she gets the info of the D: drive which shows 3MB free space
