Okay so this may be a very odd topic but the situation I have myself in is I have a very small ssd using windows 10, and it's got half a gigabyte left of storage, which isn't enough to install drivers. Is there a way I can redirect device manager to using drivers that I have installed on another copy of windows 10 in the same system on a separate hdd, doing so without using up space on the ssd? I know it's not the preferred method.

Isn't there a way you can move some things off the SSD?

 

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.
