Guest John John (MVP) Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 Re: Changing device designation Use the Windows XP built-in Disk Management Utility. To start the utility enter Diskmgmt.msc in the Start Menu Run box. John speedy_mike wrote: > I have XP. I want to change a DVD drive designation from F: to Z:.
