Hello, Need some help please

I?m having trouble opening files in Solid Works. I put all of my ol SW files on a zip disk and installed S.W. on a new computer. Now I' trying to open the files on the new computer and it gives me an erro message. It says it is trying to locate the file i C:\mydocuments\blah blah blah, but the actual files are on the E drive Zip Disk. I guess my question is does Solid Works have som sort of option where it only looks for files in the specifie directory? The drawing comes up at first with the error message then once I click "try to find this file myself it cant find it an where my drawing used to be is now a gray block with an X through it

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks
