How can I make setup path only select drivers?
I only want install to path example " c:\abc " or "d:\abc" or "e:\abc" or "f:\abc".

You mean drives not drivers right?

You can use this function to retrieve a list of hard drives on the system.
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/GetDrives
You could write the list to an InstallOptions list box control, or use my PopupListBox/EmbeddedLists plugins to display list boxes (both on the Wiki).

This is probably 'root install only' situation. You can set default folder as "c:$\abc", add 'root install only' item to existing page controls or using Marquee plug-in and check resulting $INSTDIR in the dirpage leave function (or .onVerifyInstDir function, but this may looks crazy) for root folder and blank spaces.

name 'test abc dir'
outfile 'test.exe'
showinstdetails show

page directory 
page instfiles verify_abc

function .onInit
strcpy '$R0' '$SYSDIR' 3
strcpy '$INSTDIR' '$R0abc'
functionend

section -
Setoutpath '$INSTDIR'
# do what you have to do
Setoutpath '$INSTDIR\MyAPP'
# do what you have to do
Setoutpath '$INSTDIR\So Long'
# do what you have to do
sectionend

function verify_abc
strcpy '$R0' '$SYSDIR' 3
strcmp '$R0abc' '$INSTDIR' +3 +1
strcpy '$INSTDIR' '$R0abc'
messagebox mb_ok 'reseting output directory to $R0abc'
functionend

To get the root drive, just do:

StrCpy $R0 $SYSDIR 1

$R0 == "C" or "D" etc
