prost8 0 Posted March 18, 2002 XP has been screwing up for me so i decided to reisnstall. I removed the c: partition and let windows re-format it on re-install. now that i've finaly reinstalled it's screwed up all my drive letters. i've got 2 cdroms and two hard disks, one of which has 2 partitions, one for windows (5G) and a bigger one... its made the windows partition that was c: before, g:!!! i can change all of the other drives in disk-management but it says i can't change the drive letter that windows is installed on. Anybody got any ideas how to fix this??? THanx in adv. guys.... Share this post Link to post
CUViper 0 Posted March 18, 2002 The only way to change the system drive letter is to reinstall. Here's the method I used to get my drive letters straight when creating partitions on install. Start the install.... when it asks you for the drive to install to, create your system partition by hitting "c". Don't just choose the empty space, as we don't want to start the install yet. Now reboot the computer and start the setup over. It should now have the partitions lettered correctly, and you can do your installation. I only had to do this once, so I can't remember if there was anything else I did, but it ended up the right way for me... Share this post Link to post
