The short story is, my HD (only one in the system, only one partition) now boots as an E: drive. There's no C: drive and the CDROM is D:
I've disabled the CDROM and if I boot like that, the HD is still E: and there's no C: or D:
The Long story:
It was booting as C: fine. Then I added a 2nd HD by putting it in the middle connector of the same IDE cable. Both HD were set as Cable Select in the jumper settings. After I did what I wanted to (unfortunately, I didn't pay attention whether the HD swapped letters or not at this point), I took out the 2nd HD I just put in.
Ever since then, when I boot the system, my 1st HD goes to E:
What I've done:
I've reset the BIOS. Even took out the battery to reset everything.
I took the HD to another computer, and it boot as E: too, so it's something within the HD (my guess is the MBR) and not the computer.
I've put the 2nd HD alone and it booted as C: and if I put in both HDs, the "2nd" HD is C: and my 1st HD is E:
Do you guys know what happened?
My next plan, but I'm not sure it would fix it is to run FDISK /MBR
HELP!!
