Title: WD Raptor
Post by: chug4u on July 25, 2006, 09:27:49 PM

I just installed a WD Raptor 74 GB Hard drive and while I was Installing the OS, I noticed I had a Mem key in a USB slot. Well to make a long story short, It labled my Hard drive the F: drive and the mem key must of been the C: drive I don't know how to relabel the F: Drive to the C: drive. Anybody HELP!!!

Right click on My Computer. Select "Manage." Choose the "Disk Manager" on the left.

That was a nice try, but no go. It says windows will not allow me to change drive letters because it's boot volume.

Hate to say this -
Save yourself a lot of time and problems and just reinstall.

You can't even Ghost it then restore it to a "C" partition.

Kev is right.  You'd be best off just re-installing the OS.

Yeah, I've never had it work, but it always looks like it will. :p
