I have a question about Designate
Your Own Drive Letters:
Here's a weird circumstance I need some advice with:
I recently upgraded my motherboard. The new board has a nice feature of an add-in
USB2.0/smartmedia/CF reader which occupies a 51/4 slot.
I reinstalled XP to start out fresh, then added a second HD of previously saved files/data.
Both of my HD's are partitioned into two (4 partitions total).
Here's the strange part: "A" is floppy, "C" & "D" are actually my second HD (slave),
"E" & "F" are the media reading slots, & then- finally- "G" (operating system) &
"H" are the main drives. I thought that Windows always assigned the HD's first?
Anyhow, are there any sort of issues that can arise when you change drive letter
association? Perhaps with certain programs which may "look" for a specific drive/letter
in order to run? A way around this if it's so?
Just want to get this clear before I attempt it,
Thanks!
Tracy
