Creating new partitions and drive letters influences previ-

ously installed drives and their drive letters. This can have a

considerable effect on your whole system.

For example, the system can refuse to start up because the

system files are no longer to be found on the recorded drive

letters. Similarly, programs may not work because the instal-

lation path no longer corresponds after partition. CDs may

also fail to work because the drive letters have been

changed. (see example below)

In order to avoid these problems or to repair them ...

Install the operating system and program on drive C:.

Install programs accessed by CD again on the new

drive.
