    Unhappy Win2000 swaps the drives

    It looks like w2k changes the physical order of the drives when booting ie

    I have - according to the jumper settings - old 40 Gb drive as slave which should be 'D' drive and new 80 Gb drive as master which should be 'C' drive but w2k has changed them round so that 'C' is still the old drive

    Not only that but it seems to have crossed over some critical files between drives, some come from 'D' and some from 'C' like 'My Documents' it displays the desktop from 'D' but if I download a file to the desktop the system uses the other copy of the desktop on the other drive which I then have to find with the windows explorer.
