Downloading Sims 3 from Origin.

I have windows 7 and was reinstalling my games.  I was wondering is there anyway to download them and install them on a different drive other than C, because that's my ssd and I only want windows on it. When you click on the game to download it never gives you an option to change drives.  I can load the came from a CD and it gives me that option.  How do I get origin to let me choose another drive to download it onto?

    1. Load Origin

    2. click on Origin in the menu bar top left.

    3. click application settings

    3. on general tab is an option to choose your downloaded games folder. Click Change and browse to the drive you would like to use. All games will be downloaded there. 

    NB won't work if you have anything currently downloading needs to be finished or cancelled to change this directory.
