    Hard Disk Letters
    Can anybody tell me how to get my H/Drives back in proper order. I had to reinstall Windows XP Pro. And everything was working perfectly after I reinstalled all the apps and programs. I left the computer, and when I returned there was an instruction - The System requires a reboot. After that I had:- Local Disk "D" Healthy ( Boot ). Previously Local Disk "C".
    And "C" Healthy ( System ). Previously "D".
    It's working OK. I would like it the way it was, or should I just leave it.
    Acronis won't clone either one.

    It sounds like you have two hard drives (or two partitions) and you installed XP to the wrong one. This happens... I've done it more than once on systems with multiple drives. Unfortunately, once Windows is installed you cannot change the drive letter of the boot partition without re-installing.
