Click to expand...
With diskmanager you have to give it a name,
click Control panel,
Administrative tools,
Computer management,
Storage,
Disk managment.
Now I just hope both drives are of basic type.
If one or more are of type Dynamic you have a problem.
If basic,rightclick on the drivepartition in question.
In the menu you see "change driveletter and paths"
choose that and change the disk letter.

You can also type into help Change drive letter
and follow directions from there.
