I use Nero, and it lets me decide where to save it, but I believe that Powertoys (TweakUI for XP) lets you make the changes you are talking about - just be sure that what you ask for is what you really want as Microsoft sometimes makes it difficult to "normalize" things after making some changes. If you are really running low on disk space, you might consider another hard drive (I have an 80G primary and a 30G I use for backups/images, etc)
