How to change the drive letter (E of a WinXP Pro Sp2 OS partition? At
present it is E: drive. Wish to change it to D:.

C: drive is occupied by Brother's OS WinXP Pro Sp2.

Is it possible with "Partition Magic"?

Thanks

Trish

You can't change the drive letter of the OS partition. Doing so would
render your system unbootable.

Do you wish to change the drive letter or do you wish to
move the OS to a different partition?
