program expects a certain drive letter.....
I installed a drum loop program and it installed just fine. I insert the cd to use the program and it gives me a dialog box about insert cd into drive d:/ , the problem is my cd rom is actually e:/ it gives me no option to tell it that. Is there a way around this? my main system drive is C:, then my system recovery drive is D:, cd rom is E:
I guess what I am wondering is has anyone ran into this kind of problem?

Just switch D and E. You can do that in Disk Management (right click on the left pane of the device). You will have to give the recovery partition an interim letter - e.g. M. Drive Letter - Add, Change, or Remove in Windows 7

It is the best low cost drum builder I have ever played with. I can change the tempo to match my recording, add fills, and the interface for it is so easy 
I got it working, Just needed to actually type the drive letter. I was kinda frustrated cause it listed none in the drop down. It would however allow me to manually type the drive letter. Thanks again!!
