I have a question about Designate
Your Own Drive Letters:
Ok, i have tried all suggestions on this topic to change my slave drive letter to
'S' so that I can redesignate my CDROM drive letter to D for various reasons including
to help a computer illiterate member of the family find there way around still after
the addition of a new master drive.
None of the suggestions here have unfortuantely worked.
I have deleted my config.sys , checked the contents of my autoexec.bat , made my
D drive 'removable' in Device manager, etc, etc, etc.
The problem i am encountering is that even though i have checked the 'removable'
box in the properties section of my drive, after a reboot, the 'start drive letter'
and 'end drive letter' drop down menus are still not available for use.
I have also tried changing the assigned letter in regedit using the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\ESDI\
string and changing both the CurrentDriveLetterAssignment and 'created' UserDriveLetterAssignment
keys.
I am still puzzled as to how i can re-assign my D drive letter.
If anyone who has found a solution to this problem can help, id be very gratefull.
Thank you.
