I appreciate your help, -John - Log on as Administrator - Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Performance and Maintenance. - Click Administrative Tools, double-click Computer Management, and then click Disk Management - Right-click the USB drive and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths. - Click Change. - Click Assign the following drive letter, click the drive letter that you want to use and then click OK. - Click Yes when prompted to confirm the drive letter change.
