jungle_warrior Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 In WinPE 2004(with WinXP SP2), the boot volume was assigned drive letter X:, can I change this drive letter? can I achieve this in older version of WinPE, i.e., assigne a fixed drive letter to the CD-ROM drive.thanx.
mbouchard Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 I do not believe that you can change it in 2004 as MS sets this. One reason they set it to X was that in older versions it took the first available letter.

You cannot change the Drive letter.To overcome any Drive Letter scripting issues use %SYSTEMDRIVE% in your scripts.Chris
mbouchard Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 Which I use extensivly in my scripts but is actually nolonger needed with PE 2004 and above since they hard coded it to X, which I am very glad about.

I personally don't like Hard Coded Values like that in my code. Call it a pet peeve.Chris

Makes things a little easier.<G>Mike
