I have Windows XP Home w/ SP2 installed on my machine and would like to know if there is a way to reassign the drive letters. Not the A: or C: drives but subsequent ones that have been added. If not I'll live with it but......Thanks for any help.
Llama is on the right track. Go to Control Panel, then Administrative Tools, then Computer Management, then Disk Management. That is where all drive letters are controlled.
Ok, here's a new thing in relation to this, how do I rename my drives? I know you can right click on properties when you access a drive but the two DVD drives do not have that heading. It appears for my removable drives but not the DVD's. Any thoughts? Thanks once again.
you can't, because you need to write to the disc that it's in the dvd. for removable is easy because windows doesn't need a burning software to do this; it's done in explorer. just give an propiate name to the disc when you burn it. if you have multi-session discs you can change their name at every session.
What happened was a few removable drives that were designated on my card reader swapped over to the DVD drives because I disconnected the card reader. The dvd drives assimilated the names. I suppose I could disconnect the dvd drives and let windows reassign the drive names to the card reader. Might that work?
