I've downloaded the installation client, but I cannot install Ragnarok Online, because it won't let me decide where to install it, even if i change the directory to D:/rag it installs atleast part of it to my C drive and I don't have room for it there and can't get room for it, it's a small HD designed just to store Windows only.

I'm just wondering if there's a way to install it exclusivley to where I tell it to? thanks a lot.

EDIT: I'm running windows 7.

The space on the C drive is used as scratch space. Due to the oddities of the MSI format, RO requires 2x the final installation size to be available on the drive with your windows temporary files folder.

As many other programs use MSI installer, you will have the same problem with many other large programs as well. Since you have only a small amount of space on your C drive, you should change the system temp folder to a different location. This procedure should do the trick:
