when it starts should i leave it to default to c:/multisamples? and then move and adjust registry or change the location at the prompt?
No, you wrote in the header that you want multisamples on the D-drive. You should let the installer create the folder on that drive.

its strange as I kept the original download which was an exe file of 1.6 gb..the latest dim pro file .exe is 2.9 gb and that is the additional files. hopefully that will be the explanation
04_Dimension_Pro_1_5_Setup (came with X2) is 3,067,450 KB (= 2,9 GB)
Digital_Sound_Factory_Symphonic_Strings_HD_PC (also with X2) is 1,367,326 KB (1,3 GB)
Installed in my Multisamples folder on the D-drive the size is 5.13 GB.
Haven't seen any 1,6 GB exe-file.
