  1. 2 questions I hope someone can help me with.I'm trying to recover from some unknown system prob. Reinstalled XP and got the system back to booting properly but with a few difficulties.1. The system still sees one hard drive (250G) with 3 partitions: C (8M), D (85G), and E (147G). While I installed XP on this drive, I installed on part D (for space reasons - I'm still not sure how this small C: Part is happening). I'm concerned that some while installing some apps, these apps assume XP is installed on C: (not D:) - for instance, when I tried to install Java, it informed me that that there wasn't sufficient room. Is this small C: problem a result of how I recovered the drive? Is there any way to gracefully reassign Part mappings (e.g., call D: as C:) without creating new problems? My recollection is that I saw this or something similar to it before, I tried merging C: and D: (Partition Magic) and that's when my most recent round of troubles began.2. I'd appreciate advice on this item too ... In my effort to deal with problems reinstalling XP this round, I ended up installing XP on both D: (originally reported as problematic) and then E: After I got the system to boot up properly (from D:), I then deleted the Win folder on E:, but on startup, the system still believes there are two XP boot options available. What can I do to remedy this? Thanks.
