How to change the position of a drive?

Recently, my external hard drive changed from being the G: drive to being the I: drive. Because I have a lot of links and downloads going to locations on the external hard drive, it'd be a lot easier to change its name back to G: rather than switch all those to I:



I'm using Vista. Please help.How to change the position of a drive?
Right click on computer and click ';manage';.

then select ';disk managent'; from there.

then right click on the partition which u want to change the letter and select ';change drive letters and paths'; and click ';change';button in there and type ur drive letter...ITS DONE

You can change the drive letter or designator in Disk Management.



Start/Control Panel/Administrative Tool/Computer Management. In the Left pane, click Storage and then ';Disk Management. In the lower pane, choose the drive that you wish to change and right click. Click Change driver letter and path.



You may need to do a little drive letter changing, ie, if the letter that you wish to use is already in use, just change that drive to something like ';X'; and the change it back when you have the correct letter assigned to the correct drives.
