would switching the master/slave cable connectors do the trick?

For Win2k:

Control Panel ----> Administrative Tools ----> Computer Managament ----> Storage ----> Disk Management.

Right click on the drive you want to change

Sorry, I forgot how to do it in Win98.

Try:
Letter Assigner

You can do this without LetterAssigner. However, if you wanted to move hard drive volumes around, I would use LA for that.

In the device manager, you and browse to the specific device and change its letter from there (again, everything except hard drives).

if you have Iomegaware installed, there's a tab in the Zip Drive properties that allows you to change the drive letters of your CD-ROM/Zip devices. i don't know how different this is compared to changing it in, say, device manager.
