We have a laptop with 3 partitions. One of the partitions we want to be hidden so we have removed the assigned drive letter. This makes it not show up in Windows Explorer but when you go to Disk Management you can see if in there.
We then made a Ghost Image of this laptop and loaded the image to an identical laptop. Image loaded fine but when we booted up the laptop, Windows had seen the partition and assigned it a drive letter.
We want to have C drive and D drive and that's it. But now we have C, D, and F (E is the CD).
Any other way to make a partition not viewable in Windows XP other than removing the drive letter or any way to make that unassigned drive letter stay when a machine is Ghosted? I thought it would but apparently not...
Thanks.
