When drive letters change for the Windows partition/drive, it must be reinstalled.
No way around it. XP needs breathing room, 10 to 15 gig minimum (for XP and programs)
and put your data on a seperate drive or, depending on what you do with your machine,
you will quickly run out of space. You need to leave a minimum of 15% of free space
just to defragment, and sometimes more depending on the size of the stored files.
It might be best to start over, repartition in roughly 10 gig for C and the rest
for a D drive (if you want to keep data seperate) and reinstall XP at this point,
otherwise just keep it all in one big drive/partition...
