Comment: My computer has two drives that are involved. The c drive has 14 gb when my d drive has 60 gb . I found this when looking in the "My Computer" section. I am booting from the c drive. Thanks you.

Reply: (edit)More than likely you are looking at the seperate partitions of a single drive. The partitions are given a letter designation just as if it was a seperate drive. And as above...what is the problem? In The Matters Of Style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, Stand Like A Rock

Reply: (edit)I hope that you know what you are doing. You stated above that you were all ready booting from C which is what you are suppose to do. That info is for changing the letter designations to the drives/partitions....in changing them you may end up keeping your computer from booting (starting).

Reply: (edit)Hi Lurks, Ham. It's sort of a moot point in that Windows won't allow a drive letter change on C: anyway. http://computervitals.com/

Reply: (edit)Windows always sets a drive partition to C: when it on a single boot. From what I see, it mostly looks info, bt it's alright like this. I would recommend running two partitions.
