Dang, you're right. I was sure I'd done this at some point but I guess not - or maybe it was an NT OS.
Found this:

Since it's a clean install it would be interesting to try it. But, as you suggested, a re-install is probably both simpler and safer...

>>Hi,
>>I guess I don't agree with Tony. I'd just go into DiskManagement and change the drive letter (but, of course, don't blame me if it goes wrong). IAC you've got nothing to lose if the alternative is a re-install :-}
