How Do I Change the Drive Letters on a Partitioned Drive?

Pretty Cool

Senior member
Just got a new hard drive so here is my configuration:

A: floppy
B: none
C: New HD (partition 1)
D: Old HD
E: DVD-ROM
F: CD-RW
G: New HD (partition 2)
H: New HD (partition 3)
I: SCSI Emulated CD

This is what I want:

A: floppy
B: none
C: New HD (partition 1)
D: DVD-ROM
E: CD-RW
F: Old HD
G: New HD (partition 2)
H: New HD (partition 3)
I: SCSI Emulated CD

How do I do this? Thanks.
 
I am running Windows 98 original on partition 1, and Windows 2000 on partition 3.

I can upgrade 98 to SE or ME if it matters.
 
95/98/ME can't do that (without extra software like Letter Assigner); they insist on having the first primary DOS/FAT parition on each drive first. Normally you then get the contents of the extended partitions, then the other primary partitions, if any. In this case, you'd be stuck with C: and D:, the first primary paritions on each disc, but you could change the rest.
