    It's on F: because that is where my operating system hard drive is currently. The C: drive is a different hard drive that I used to reinstall the Windows 7 Pro that was on F:

    The reason for that being, with my new CPU&Mobo would not let me boot into windows on the drive that is currently F:

    So I used my laptop hard drive to see if it was a motherboard issue (this drive had a fresh install on it). I was able to get into windows and so I used my Windows 7 Pro cd from there to reinstall it on F:

    Also should note, I wasn't able to boot to my Windows 7 Pro disc. Not sure what is up with that one but I managed a work around for the time being.
