    drive letter question


    This is more of a Windows Vista Question but it may be the same as Windows 7. I have a laptop running windows vista. I have a detachable hard drive that has my music on it.

    I shut down the computer and disconnect the drive. When I go to restart the computer it sees the drive but gives it a new letter. It drives me crazy because my itunes no longer sees the drive and I have to find it manually again.

    Is there anyway to change the drive letter back to what it was the first time or is there a way to make sure it only uses that letter for that hard drive?

Been reading as much as I can and know there are limitations to what I'm asking. But when I dual booted all drive designations show up normally in Win 7. In XP it shows the OS on drive I: Drive letters E thru H are taken by USB ports. This will cause a lot of confusion for the person that will...
