Drive E?

[Steven Fisher]

I re-installed Windows XP a few days ago. For some reason, it has
called my only hard drive (primary master) E. C has become my Zip
drive (primary slave). Is there any way to change this back, short of
re-installing? Assuming I need to re-install, what made it do this
stupid thing and how do I stop it from doing it again?

Known issue when you keep external drives attached during an installation.

Sigh. I spotted one of the other articles in here about the zip drive
immediately after posting, but couldn't follow up my post right away.
Believe it or not, I really did do a search before asking. I just didn't
find anything...

Good thing I detached my iPod, too, out of paranoia.
