WNew hard drive naming problem
My system had one drive partitioned into two drives (C and D). The system also had two optical drives (one DVD and one CD) on another IDE channel.
Last night I added a new hard drive to my system as the primary drive, and installed Windows XP on it. The old drive was kept and placed as the slave on the same IDE channel.
Everything works just fine and all drives are recognized, BUT my new drive is showing up as drive G, when I expected it to show up as drive C, and have the old drive show up as D and E. Instead, the old drive is still C and D, the opticals are this E and F and the new drive is G!
The boot really does occur on drive G so everything works, but I don't like the names reversed that way.
How do I get Windows to rename the drives (make G, C....C, D....D, E...etc.)?
BTW, I rebooted from the Windows XP CD and saw that it shows the drives in the right order (the new drive is C, the old one is D and E).
Thanks!
