Managing Drive Letter Changes
Creating a new partition may cause your drive letters to change. For example, if you have
one primary partition (C:) on your hard drive and a CD-ROM drive (D:), and you create a
new logical partition on your hard drive, the new partition becomes D: and the CD-ROM
drive changes to E: after you reboot your computer. As a result, any programs on your
hard drive that were linked to the CD-ROM no longer function because the paths to files
have changed.

Norton recommends that you allow DriveMapper to automatically update the drive letter
references in application shortcuts, initialization files, and registry entries when prompted
to do so. However, you can update drive letter references manually. See “Changing Drive
Letter References with DriveMapper” on page 84.

While you can use DriveMapper to update references to files, for least impact, consider
creating all new partitions on the highest disk (for example, disk 3 in a three-disk system)
and to the right of existing partitions.
