go to system properties --> advance tab -> environment variable
add the path you want in the PATH variables.

When you do this you should also create a folder named TEMP and change the user variables for each user and for the system to this new folder path.
Many programs do not like the fact that windows uses such a long file path to the temp folder
(c:\documents and settings\username\loacl settings\temp) <--way to long for things like Lotus Notes or some install programs.
