Question about harddisk driveletters

I have a question about Designate Your Own Drive Letters:

My problem is this: I have recently installed a 45GB harddisk and made these 5 partitions: C: All Windows related stuff D: All other program files E: Documents F: Documents G: Mostly zipped backup for reïnstalls I kept my old 2GB drive to store less used stuff on, but every time I connect this drive, it automatically gets drive letter D:, D: becomes E:, E: becomes F:, etc... messing up all program links! This is quite annoying because any program I launch now searches unsuccesfully for its files on drive D: ... I read designating drive letters in Win Me only works with drives controlled by drivers, but isn't there any way to make the second disk take the last drive letter (in my case H:) ? All answers that could clear things up for me are highly appreciated.. Bram.
