I added another new 100 gig hard drive to my system and Windows XP named it
J: drive. How can I rename it as another drive letter. I know that I have to
go into "run" and type in something but I must of had a brain cramp and I
forgot what it is. Could you remind me just what it is?

Open XP's "Help and Support" and type: CHANGE DRIVE LETTER ,
and hit enter. Then click on "Assign, change, or remove a drive letter.

Hi,

You could do in disk administration/disk management.

Hi Tim,

Start/run diskmgmt.msc

Or, right-click "My Computer" and select manage.
