Hi there,
My system recently changed after a backup restore for some
reason to such:
c: primary disk
d: CD
e: DVD
f: hard disk
g: hard disk.

After I reassign my hard disks to d: & e: (like they were
before my last restore of a backup) with CD/DVD being
assigned to m: & n: I just need to reboot and everything
goes back to the same mixed up sequence initially listed.

Does anybody know how to ensure that the system KEEPS the
reassigned drive names?
thanks
phil

Does anybody know how to overcome this problem?
I imagine it's got something to do with volume mounts??
although I've got no real idea.
Thanks
