Windows XP does allow drive letter changes through "Disk Management"
(Right-click "My Computer", select "Manage", select "Disk Management" under
"Storage") The option is available even on the system partition. I do not
know, however, what effect this will have on your computer's ability to boot
afterward.

Well, obviously I didn't try it just to find out. If you had read my entire
post you would see that I suggested that the poster check out the help files
etc... I did not say with certainty that it could be done.

However, the option was available when I clicked on it ... I didn't try to
change it, but I did get all the way to the point where it is done.
