Reassigned Drive letters and System Reserve
Hello,
I am just fighting with the install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit on my homemade. I first had only a 500 GB Black Caviar drive and installed on that. It gave me a C: drive and an unremembered letter System Reserve partition. A week later I put a 1 TB Caviar Green both drives SATA 3G. I also have a multicard reader. I got a lettered drive for the 2nd hardrive and a second lettered System Reserve partition. I didn't ask it to do that. Continuing now the 1st Drive partition is C: and the 200 MB partition which I'm assuming is the System Reserve partition on the C: drive is lettered E:.
The 2nd drive shows as F: drive and the F:System Reserve lettered partition has disappeared.
When I run a backup it displays grayed out and checked the C: and the E: System Reserve partition and it gives me the option of choosing the F: drive and an unlettered System Reserve area.
Is this normal, is it something to be concerned with? I desperately need assistance as Windows is finally running almost perfect.
Please help, Thanks
