CD Rom Letter Change

[Grim Reaper]

Just wondering, it it possible to change the drive letter of my CD drive?

[Wiggo]

Go into the Device Manager, right click on the drive then properties, then click on the settings tab and that's where you'll change the drive letter. ;)

Yes you can.
What OS you got?
In Win 9x - Hit Winkey+Break - click Device Manager - select CDrom - doubleclick the drive you wish to change - select the Settings tab - select the Start and End Reserved Drive Letters for the drive - click OK - again click OK - reboot when prompted.

That should handle it.

if its xp which im pretty sure it is goto computer management, drive management and then the properties for the cdrom drive, that should fix it all good

Yes, it's XP Pro... but if this is what you mean, there doesn't seem to be any way to change the drive letter...

[Mr. C]

Would that be an administative function perhaps?

Argh! YOU CAN???

[Kheldar]

it shouyld be under computer management - disk mangment - right click on disk and should give u and option to change drive letter & path - can't verify this right now since I'm not at my XP machine :cry:

[SileNceR]
