My 500gig external lHD i like to have called E: however when i booted my PCup with another HD connected my E: disk became G: , even having removed the other HD it still is G: which is pretty bothersome since Utorrent downloads to E:\downloads...

How can i change the now G: disk back to the E: disk?

does his work with master harddrives?

Hard drives with the windows OS on them are always C:\\ by default, which you can change at setup. You cannot change them after install.

I tried to change a drive letter from D:\ to C:\ once, through the registry.

I ended up having to reformat.
