lost drive C associations
Earlier this year I formatted and rewrote win xp but for some reason the
main and only internal drive was assigned as C: (F which some software on cd would not recognize and I never could find a good way resolve it. I recently did a fdisk on the mbr and ended up having to a xp repair which eliminated f and left c as the main drive but now I can't open any programs etc as if most all software associations are lost to the main drive, does anyone have a recommendation on getting everything to recognize c as the main drive?
