I am new to Win XP embedded. I am having problems saving any driver
settings to the C drive.

Everytime the machine is rebooted, the driver setting are lost and
need to be reinstalled. If anything is configured to be saved in any
drive other than C: then its saved okay.

I hope you can help with this configuration problem.

It looks like EWF is protecting C:

Type ewfmgr C:
to see if ewf is running.

Hi Slobodan,
Thanks for replying.

Yes, looks like ewf is running:

Type: RAM
State: Enabled
....

How do I change this?

Hi Doug,
Thanks for replying.

Looks like ewf is enabled with RAM overlay.

Type: RAM
State: Enabled
....

How do I change this?

If you are user then it is not advisable.

But you can use:
ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable
or
ewfmgr c: -commit

First try "ewfmgr c: -disable". If you get an error 87 (I think) then the
EWF partition does not exist so then try "ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable".
When changing the state of the EWF it's very important to perform a graceful
shutdown/restart.

When you want to re-enable then use "ewfmgr c: -enable".

HTH... Doug
