Can you go to the same hardware panel and delete all of the CD, DVD and ZIP drives then reboot? Once you reboot, Windows should detect 'new' hardware and reinstall the drivers. My experience is that once a device has been installed and the driver loaded by Windows 98, Windows remembers where it stored the driver and automatically reloads it. You might need the CDROM that has the drivers if windows doesn't have the old copy. Then try changing drive letters and reboot again.
If a device does not automatically reinstall, then click the add new hardware icon in control panel and go thru the wizard to add the missing device.
If you have other software that remembers drive letters, then it *might* get confused by changing letters.
I don't understand why the camera cable has to be a certain drive letter. Is there maybe an option in whatever download software you are using to change it? Is uninstalling and reinstalling the download software an option or do you lose some database of picture info by doing that?
