Confused about drive letters...

[18MW]

Well, I did a dual-boot system with Vista 32-bit and 7 64-bit. Now the problem is that, when I'm in Vista, the drive letter of Vista would be C: and 7 would be in B:.
But when I'm in 7, its partition would have the letter C: while Vista would have B:.
Is this normal? What would happen if I installed a program on the path C: in Windows 7?

Hello 18MW, and welcome to Seven Forums.

Yes, this is completely normal. Whatever OS has started up will automatically consider itself on the C: partition or drive. You will not have a problem installing a program since it sees what the OS sees it as.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Yes, it is normal. The system you are booted into is always C. If you install a program while in Windows 7, it will install to the program files directory of that OS.
