When I open the command prompt the drive is always set to a certain one. How can I change it to the one I want? Also, is there a way I can make it the drive and directory I want every time I open the command prompt? Thanks.

Change to drive E? Just type "e:" at the command prompt.
if you are using XP, there is no need to edit the registry. Click Start, right-click the Command Prompt icon, then select Properties from the popup menu. In the Properties dialog, select the Shortcut tab. Then change the "Start in:" string to whatever you want.
