You can't change the drive letter on your bootable drive, the one your OS is installed on. MS KB Article. You'd have to reinstall XP if you want it to have a different drive letter.

Yea I saw the same article. So why was it I was able to do it on xp pro. Was it because xp pro was set up as a slave drive??
