Hi Guys,
I've recently acquired a new pc, so I thought I'd pop my old hard drive in. When booting it gets to the W7 splash screen but then restarts.
I plugged it into my laptop as an external hdd and noticed that the hidden partition (100mb) has become the c drive and what was the c drive is now the d drive. I mad a W7 boot usb to access system repair, tried restoring windows to a previous state but that failed, i'm assuming because it was trying to restore the c drive (which is now d).
So basically, is there any way to rename the d drive back to c and revert the current c to a hidden partition?
when booting (vie usb) into repair mode I can access the command prompt so I'm assuming i can access diskpart as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers guys x
