Hi Group,
    My problem arises when I install Magic Jack. It always bumps my external hard drive up a drive letter. I don't always have the Magic Jack plugged in (seems to slow my system down) so my external hard drive is then again one drive letter lower. The drive is accessed from other computers on my home network.

TIA
R Shane

  I have backups set to run also, and they never complain about drive letters.


  > My drive letters never change when I'm booted, so I still don't understand.

  A given program is dependent on the registry entries on that  drive, so
  you'd always be internally consistent once these hard paths were set.

  What am I missing here?
