Hello all
Some may know I'm running Win7 at the moment but there's one thing that pisses me off. When I am on 7 (on its own partition) It thinks that said partition is the "C" drive. However when I boot into Vista (the other partition) it thinks ITS "C" this causes a few issues for some of my programs which I dont have the CD's for anymore because they only like running from the C drive. I was wondering if there is a way to change the drive letter of the boot-drive/partition without having to format and start again...
Start-->Right Click Computer-->Manage-->Disk Management-->Right click on the drive-->Change drive letter and paths.
ERROR: Cannot change drive letter of boot disk.

Windows automatically sets the drive letters when it installs, and each installation has its own internal drive letters. AFAIK there's no way to change the letter of the drive where Windows is installed (you'd break a ton of stuff) and I don't know any way to force it to use a particular drive letter when you install Windows.
tl;dr: I think you're out of luck, sorry
