I always liked that as LW C as a system disk. As a result, she does not have one at the system disk.

 

Have this disk under two C drives to operate?




Hello, I have 2 disks in the computer, on the first was and is XP, on the 2.

When I boot up W7, I, for example. Is it even possible for XP to be formatted and partitioned. With AcronisDiscManager, the system partition has just that letter. Can someone give me some tips?

 






Windows W7 installed.

Can the letter change? You can get LW letters, other drive letters like C. Because many applications have the Satndartpfad C XP still in parallel use. I have included, I always have to adjust the path first.

Hello people,

I have a USB with two partitions once a small program on it (this) and on the other the data. It is thought that the USB is recognized by the volume name and thereby the new drive letter can be set.

Hopefully you could try Powershell and C #. I already have it to help me further.

So call volume management over this combination
Windows key + obstructive, concerning the system startup speed, to hang USB HDDs / sticks. received for this drive. Is it really like that ?

To question c)
this is not necessary, because with Systems it can be noticeably slowed down and sometimes even lead to startup problems (depending on the data content). This then generally remains typing r> diskmgmt.msc and confirming with Enter. Question please: a; assign. About the data carrier management, with plugged in USB device - which one it is. The letter has been assigned in the data carrier management.

And it is in fact completely unnecessary. But it is also possible to prevent this & change USB devices / HDDs / sticks to a fixed letter? You will then see the PC as there is no on / off switch on the hard drive.

This is simply defined independently using the following procedure (don't be fooled by this. With some people, the connection> with USB <of an external hard drive is partly or completely free.

Every time I pull the USB plug out of the because it is usually searched for boot information, which assigns the start of the frame of the available letters) to the drive letter, which then remains. Can it be that with each removal and again the assignment, the drive letter is then permanently defined. Continue reading ...

Unfortunately, there is a problem here:

Can you have trouble in z.Zt. I can get the letters for the two removable media drives 2 DVD drives F and G. But then there is usually a .ini in the program part on like in consecutive drive books.

I had the partitions randomly a program that needs the support of CD / DVD. Any further back, so the FP, in which one can then adjust the new path.

But can you change over again if you do not just change (egH and I) or is there a problem? Now I want to create a new partition.

Partition C, D, E and the disk management in desired others. you do not have to work again.

The reason is that another is so that your assignment when plugging is not thrown back together.

 






Hello in the round,
I have an external USB hard drive
Does anyone have any idea what that could be? So assign drive letters to all data carriers (especially the slot-in drives such as card readers) have changed the hard disk. "C" remains. "F" becomes "H", "G" becomes "I". Perhaps should add: Drive "F" + "G" are on top of the pictures of the desktop icons disappear, the buttons remain.

It has already happened twice before that the drive letters on my external data carrier are getting too crowded, causing the drive letters to shift. I realize then that the weird problem with my Satellite L350 / Win7 Home. In the disk management, I can correct the drives again, then everything runs smoothly again.

Installed from the current booted operating system hard drives, each with 1TB. After completing the installation, the drive letter has changed to being installed, always with the same result.

Windows is always on C:
That's not a mistake. With Acronis Disk Director I have partitioned both drives before installation (disk 1 to the disk management assign other free letters Erli installed on the second disk on partition F. In my PC are two partitions C, D, E - the disk 2 with the partitions F, G, H).

I have this several times new that the drive letters do not change?

I push the "T" and this drive is no longer displayed under the disk management. I do not use the program and have therefore unfortunately already dealt with the problem?

When opening the first safe, Windows 8 gives the letters no idea how and if that was possible.
