If you are playing with XP, on the desktop, right click on My Computer, select MANAGE and then STORAGE - DISK MANAGEMENT, right click on the disk you want to change and select Change Drive Letter.

Of course, you will find that you can't change the drive letter for a boot or system drive. Note that the 2 can be the same OR different disks.
It's one of my greatest hates that MS never got around to managing the installation of any OS properly in a multi-disk or multi-partition environment.

Yeah, i have C: AND D: and both cant be changed because of that...
I did a really stupid thing, i clean installed Vista, but delete the partition and then re-created it and now vista is on D:
But i have a restore partition, so
Restore = Partition 1
Windows = Partition 2 (D
Data = Partition 3 (C:
Some how i have managed to mess the drive lettering up,
I have a full partition of data otherwise i'd format both and start again, but i cant be bothered to backup 100gigs of data on like 24 dvd's...
Oh well,
