Hi Everybody,

Hope all is well. I have a "stupid" question... I have gotten my external hard-drive to come up as Drive:(G) when it always has been, and I would prefer it to be Drive:(F)

The reason I want to get it back the way I had it is that all my Itunes links go to my main music library on my external HD thru :(F).

I could just create a new shortcut, but then I would have to transfer all my songs back over to Itunes, and this will possibly happen again, (I forget how I fixed it last time)

Oh, and it all happened when I was hot-swapping my photocard drive, (I use USB2.0 for all these)

I have tried rebooting and plugging them in different orders, but they seem stuck as Camera:(F) and ExternalHD:(G) I just want it back to the way it used to be!!! Any help is aprreciated. I think I need to go into My Computer > Preferences > Hardware > and then do something to all my USB ports, but I am scared to do that as I don't want to delete drivers and skrew it up worse... Does this sound close, am I way off?

What do U think?

Thanks!

If Windows XP:

Start > All Programs > Administative Tools > Computer Management > Storage > Disk Management

change them all in there...
