Sorry if it was unclear I think though if you read the instructions with this tool
it will become clear!
Basically without my DAP (iRiver H140) plugged in to USB I have the following drives...
C: First HD primary partition
D: Second HD primary partition
E: First HD secondary partition
With my DAP plugged in but not using DLMANIP I get...
C: First HD primary partition
D: Second HD primary partition
E: DAP
F: First HD secondary partition
I believe that this is something to do with my DAP drivers but windows sees it as
a permanent HD rather than a removable disk so it appears amost as though its the
"third HD primary partition" and thats just the order in which Windows 98 deals with
things.
So I used DLMANIP and told it to reassign drive letters based on the fact I only
have TWO permanent hard drives and the upshot is that when my DAP is plugged in the
driver letters get swapped so I get
C: First HD primary partition
D: Second HD primary partition
E: First HD secondary partition
F: DAP
which means E: and F: are always the same drives/devices regardless of whether I
have my DAP connected or not.
it works for me and there are other options to let you move and reassign drive letters
for different devices.
