All righty then. So how does one avoid detaching the IDE drive D: so it
doesn't get Win2000 installed on it all the time, and the drive letters
switched then? Oh, too late.

So how do I turn the ATA100 drive back into C:, without opening the box and
unplugging the IDE drive?

Okay, then... This would be where the Promise ATA100 Driver comes back to
bite me. Lacking the F6/S ability to get the controller taken care of, how
am I to avoid a dreaded error message?
