    no c:\ after bug4dos recovery


    hi

    my pc crashed and I made a recovery disc on laptop

    it did not fix the problem but I managed to get into dos (cmd)

    it does not read my hard drive as in c:\

    but gives me x:\

    how do I activate my c:\ from here this happened after I failed to recover from bug4dos error

    on bug4dos error I activated something like --(0.1) but did not name or activate c:\

    You need to find out what drive letter has been assigned. You can do this using the diskpart command from the Command Prompt.

    diskpart
    list disk
    list volume
    exit (to end diskpart)

    Just type the drive letter to switch to it, for example c: or d: or e: .... For instance, on my system it looks like this:

    Code:
    >diskpart
    
    Microsoft DiskPart version 6.2.9200

    I believe you should choose the drive letter witch contains your windows installation

    although it fixes the boot mbr on al drives
