I had a hard drive that was going out, so I bought a new one, made my partitions, copied everything over, and it's working ok and everything.

But now, I have drive G, and Drive H, and my burner is now D.


How can I get my new drives partitions to be D, E, and burner F?

running windows 2000

right click on my computer and go to manage

there should be a disk management option, click on it

right click on the drive whose letter you want to change, then click 'change drive letter and paths' change it. you may have to change it to something weird in order to get the final order you want.

This is in XP but in 2000 it's almost exactly the same

i want to add something to zephyrx's reply: MAKE SURE NONE OF THOSE HARD DRIVES CONTAIN YOUR MAIN WINDOWS PARTITION!

if you change the drive letter of a windows system partition, you'll hose your entire system.  you could possibly make sure it won't screw up through editing the registry, but well, i never got it to work.  you've been warned.
