Remap HDD to a different letter?

by oldskoolboarder Jun 21, 2005 3:53AM PDT

My external drive has moved from F:/ to G:/, not sure why but never was a problem until now. I have a program that only sees data files on the external drive when it's at f:/. F:/ is currently unassigned. How do I change the external drive letter to something else?

I know how to remap a network drive, but that doesn't allow me to change the g:/ to f:/.

The OS would matter.

In XP, look in the drive or disk management tool that is docuemented in Start, Help and Support.
