[help] Finder Clone Drive Issues

all of the "finders" i tried using on my pc don't work like they should.. i think it's because i have my default drive by the letter F: and i dont have any C: drive... how can i change the drive letter and change all the pathes related to it so windows will work properly and all of the software will work?

Topic Title Edited.

Please try naming your topics better in future, and don't forget the [tags].

Please calm down, a clear mind helps. What I think you are trying to say is that none of the finders will work because your hard drive is infact F:, this is good as it is the same as mine.

Okay what you need to do is to look at the settings for the finder and look for any items refering to the C: Drive.

However, if you really do want to change your hard drive path, which I would not reccomend as it can seriously mess up all the information on your computer, here is what you must do.

In Windows XP you must be logged in as an administrator, then go to the control panel, administrative options (or something along that line) then there should be a link to computer management, you would go into that then it should after a few seconds display a window that you may have not seen before, look for something on the left hand side of that window that says disk or disc managment, once you see it, click on it and right click on the F: Drive, then click change drive letter (or something like that).

There you are.

P.S. Please in the future read the rules and post in the appropriate forum, this is not the right forum for a topic such as this, this belongs in either the Community applications forum or the Windows software forum

Please also use meaningful topic titles, Problem with drive pliz help is

1) Not a full explination of the problem

2) Does not contain a tag, a tag comes before the main part of the topic title and may contain [help], [question], [request], [suggestion] (although I may be wrong about some of these), so mods please correct me if I'm wrong.

So the most useful topic title in this case would have been something like:

[help] No Finder clones work due to drive letter

not Problem with drive.. pliz help

Thank you very much for your time, glad I could help

Unfortunately, Jimmy, you can't change a system drive's drive letter. Good idea, though.

Topic Moved.

This is probably best suited to Community Applications, methinks.

True, but it is still dodgy to say the least, if you were going to try it, I'd say BACKUP ALL YOUR IMPORTANT STUFF FIRST.
