Computer Re: Installing SE IV on New Machine. What a Night

How do I install SEIV (and all the mods I have) keeping the game engine in H:\Program Files\Games|Space Empires but saving my games and notes and other stuff in ...\Document&Settings\UserXXXX\Games|Space Empires ... ??

Can this even be done?
I imagine it can, in theory, but the user account that I set up for myself under WinXP Pro was so frustrating to use that I eventually gave up and deleted the user account.
