Greetings and Saluations

I just installed a second DVD drive, and my drive letters
don't match the names of the volumes - they are all
correctly working.

How do I rename a drive?

Example:
E: named VRMSP_EN want DVD-RW Drive
F: correctly named DVD/CD-RW Drive
G: Photosmart want Dazzle
H: Removable Disk want Photosmart
I: correctly named FUJIDRIVE

Thanks

David

The volume names of removable, CD, and DVD drives are the volume
names of any disks in the drive at the moment. If you remove the
VRMSP_EN CD/DVD from drive E:, you'll find that the system will then
simply identify the type of drive it is. Only the volume names of
fixed hard drives can be specified by the user.
