Partition Letters vs DVD letters
Posted by drybones on October 16th, 2005


At present, the partitions run C thru J with the (2) DVD units being K & L.

This leaves, my last partition (M) being the last.

Is it possible to change the DVD units to be last?

Thanks for reading and hopefully answering.

Start --> Help and Support
Search for:

Disk Management

Also - you can just right-click on "My Computer" and choose "Manage" and
then select the "Disk Management" option. You can arrange the letters -
excluding the system and any you have installed applications on you don't
want to reinstall - the way you like.

The only thing you have to watch is if you already have data on that
partition, with shortcuts to them on your main OS, they will also have to be
managed, otherwise they'll become broken links.
