I am trying to change the drive letters of my partitions by deleting the current c: partition that does not have windows installed on it. It won't let me remove the partition because it is designated as "system", how can i change the d: drive to system?

k, the System partition holds your "boot" files meaning it holds: Autoexec.bat, Config.sys, IO.sys, MSDOS.sys, (and for win2k/xp) NTDETECT.com and ntldr. Your Boot Partition holds your System files ie: windows directory. Kinda counter intuitive but whatever. you MAY be able to change the drive letters, I have never tried to do this with your C drive so I dont know how it will work out, but anyway go to Start -> Ctrl Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Disk Management. here you should be able to right click on the partitions you want changed and go to "Change Drive Letter" lemme know if it works.

If that doesn't work I'm sure Partition Magic can do it.

Disk Manager won't - last time I checked - allow you to change the drive letter of the system partition - it'd fuck with the computer in too many ways.

Please go over all of your options before you actually follow through, you might end up seriously messing up your OS install. Once, I accidentally installed the OS on E:\, then tried to shuffle it around using a third party solution (as Windows refused to let me change the drive letter). Ended up so Windows wouldn't boot, and I had to reinstall.

but don't fuck with it if you don't know it inside and out. I had to RMA a hard drive a while back because it perma-fucked the entire thing. couldn't even write 0s to it.
