OK, I tried to change the drive letter through administrative tools but it wont let you. It says you cant change the drive designation with the operating system on it.

Editing the shortcuts to the correct drive would be easier.

Changing the drive letters is never a good idea unless you also have software that is going to go through the drives and change all references to those drives to the new letter. (Registry entries, shortcuts, etc etc.)

Well, I was only trying to change the drive letter because Jeff said I needed to or I wont be able to use his kitchen. He says it needs to be on the C drive.

Don't install it. I don't say this to be mean, I'm just trying to save you some time. Stick with what you have. You'll see why later.

If your OS is installed to a drive other than C: and you can use Disk Management to make sure that there is NOT a physical drive using the letter C you can try this trick:

Share out a folder from a usable hard drive (it does not matter what the drive letter is) in theory this could be a network folder

Right click on "My Computer" and select "Map Network Drive" then map C: to the folder you just shared \\computername\sharedfolder

Not 100% sure this will work for this case, I do not have a computer that is not using C for its OS that I can test this on, but I have used this trick in the past for something similar to this. I hope the instructions are accurate, just typing this from the top of my head.

stuck in splash screen

Loaded all my software. Set my settings. weorked great, but calendar and contacts are mapped wrong. I didn't do anything to them. Went into soft buttons, did a default, program reset. Stuck in splash screen. Nothing would get me out but a hard reset. Just finished reloading a second time. Still love the new format. Everything works.

sounds like you are going to cook up something new for sprint users? if so that is the only reason for me to not do this, the custom bootscreen had me sold because i took a picture of my son and made a cool one in illustrator...

i thought it was simple if you follow the instructions but if u tell me to wait then i have to do as u say boss...
