I built this computer with a ls120, but decided to take it out and
install a 1.44 floppy. Now its name is B. How do I rename it so it will
be drive A?
Thanks!

Have you checked the BIOS to see if it set to be A: there?

I don't know that you can - this is usually reserved/set in the BIOS.
 
Go into Device Manager, View show Hidden, remove ALL floppies, reboot
and A should be back.

Which connector on the cable did you use. The end connector is for the "A"
floppy. The center connector is for the "B" floppy.
