Im trying to change the drive letter of one of my hard drives, because it has all my music on it and now the paths are all screwed up when i reinstalled windows.

is there a waay to change the path of the system drive while in the wondows environment?

if not, how can it be done?

 
Right click your "my computer"

Go to "manage"

Select "Disk Management"

Righ click on the drive you want to change, and then click "change drive leter and paths"

TADA!

 
right click my computer > manage > disk management > right click the drive u want to change > CHange letter drive

edit: beat me to it :|
 
IIRC, Start>Settings>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Disk Management

There you should find what you're looking for. However, I don't believe you could change the system drive letter.
 
You cannot change the drive letter of the partition that XP is on in XP. It is like trying to lift yourself up by puling your shoe laces!

What is the problem? Is XP not on drive C?
 
well you see i have 4 hard drives, 2 of which are in a RAID array.countless reformats have resulted in my drive letters being changed many times over.

windows xp is on the RAID array, which is drive E.

my music hard drive used to be drive E, so now i would have to redo all my programs and playlists, which i REALLY do not want to do. ALl games and programs are on drive D, which is my other secondary drive, which is 60 gigs.

I do not have a drive C.

anyway that you can help me?

Click to expand...


In that case, I don't think that you can change the drive letter, if your OS is on them like the post above said. Next time you format, unplug your other drives with only the OS drives connected...that's my suggesion anyway.
