Vista Drive Letter Changed

[tinners]

Hi,

I have a dual boot XP / Vista setup. Both on the same drive, 2 logical partitions.

I added a new drive to my system and also removed a drive.

For some reason this caused the Vista drive letter to change from C: to E:
It now doesnt work properly. Still boots OK but cant logon etc.

Disks are shown as

C: XP and D: VISTA in XP
C: XP and E: VISTA in Vista

Any ideas how I can get it to be C: again ?

Thanks

This is my BCDEdit dump:

Hello Tinners, welcome to NeoSmart Technologies!

Unfortunately this is an issue in all versions of Windows to date - if you change the drive letter of the OS you'll have to perform a repair install to get it to log on again.

You may be able to avoid this by changing the drive order in your BIOS so that Vista is drive C: again.
