Outlook Express 6 folder location

Hello all.
I would like to know if it is possible to change the location of my outlook express folders from C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities, to another location.
I have just had my computer refuse to start after a simple software install, I tried safemode, which usually works, in order to do a system restore but no luck.
Usually I can get it to run and move my identities, address book and favourites to another partition, then format the machine and copy them back, but this time I had to remove the hard drive and stick it into another computer to get at the files which was a headache.
So I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to change the default location, I have found information that would work with windows 98 but not with XP.
Thank you very much.
KAMAG.
