ok first open DX builder. then right click on the DX builder icon in the systray.
select "import" from the popup menu. in the window that opens check the widgets box at the top. look in the widgets library and select the widget and press load. if it's not listed. then use the browse function to browse your PC to where the widget is stored.. then select it and run..
now with the widget loaded in DX builder go over to the C drives % text and right click.in the popup menu select properties. in the window that opens highlight Graphical performance meters and press the configure button below. In that window set text of object to what the drive you want, then go to the top of the window and select the data source tab. in the Drive space meter sub menu, select the drive you want listed and press apply then ok.
after you have done this the widget will show the new drives info. right click on the main window of the widget and select export. in that window select export as a widget. make sure the selected and related box is checked at the lower right of the window and pres next. here you will name the widget to what you wish or use the default widgets name..press next here again make sure the name ,matches the one you put in the previous pages name section. example ( clear meters.exe) then press finish.. a window will popup to let you know it was successfully saved.. the widget is now saved to the DX widgets folder..

If you're using DX Client, you won't be able to do this. You need DX Standard.
Nice work in any case, HG.
