pay attention to reboots
- Change Disk Drive Letters
First you must remember that you CANNOT change the letter for the
boot drive if it contains the PAGEFILE.SYS (swap file) and/or HIBERFILE.SYS(hibernate file).
To move pagefile.sys use Control Panel | System | Advanced tab | Settings
under Performance | Advanced tab again | Virtual Memory and CHANGE
button. set the drive you want to move FROM to NO Paging File and click on SET.
set the drive you want to move TO and click SET.
To turn off page file, same as above, but select No Paging file and then click the SET button
To disable hiberfile.sys use Control Panel | Power Options Hibernate tab.
THEN REBOOT and Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Computer Management | Disk
Management under Storage, then RIGHT click on the drive letter to change
and select the Change Letter option.
THEN following the first procedure set the PAGEFILE.SYS back to the
drive it was on originally.
XP automatically adjusts the registry for the drive letter changes.

I had a disk failure and had the Hard drive replaced. The Tech. replaced
the hard drive and created the drive under "F:". I would like to convert
this drive to "C:". Any help !!
