Q: I know you can drive letters spare, but I can not seem to indicate. I have win98se. I want to store MP3s on a drive called M that I have nothing to do. Is there a way to do this, or am I way for anal?
Re:Hey, there is a software, called Letter Assigner 1.1. It's a freeware, you might try this, well, with your own risk.
Re:I guess I am being a little to anal. I'll go with the drive label instead–that seems simple enough and I definately do not want to cause harm to my system.
Thank you all for your help.
Re:After the main partition in Win98se is C:\ your physical drives and drives within extended partitions follow suit with respect to drive lettering and order. The function within Win98se does not exist to allow mapping or reassigning a physical drive/partition without others existing between them – zip, cd's, jaz, and other removeable devices fall outside of this spec and can be assigned drive letters that you wish. You would need to have drive D: – L: in order to make this work in 98se – as stated in a previous post.
Re:win2k allows you to assign.
Re:Windows funtions by having drive letters placed in the order that they are detected; in order to have "M:", you'll need to have 13 drives/partitions
Or, u have "M:" as a network drive to which u can "Map Network Drive M:"
u can get "DriveMapper" from PowerQuest's "Partition Magic" to swap drive letters, but I don't think it can 'assign' per se
Re:Dealing with letters is the worst thing to do.
If you have multi os like me, put the most recognizable partitions (fat 12, then Fat32, then NTFS, than Linux primary, thaen lnux swap) in the beginning, otherwise will screw everything up!
Re:You for sure can assign a "label",like "Mr.Anal", after a format but Win98se will assign the drive letter for you.
