I recently formatted my computer only to find that the drive names were all screwed up.
My local disk is I: and i believe this is related to the fact that my autorun function does not work; if you insert a CD/DVD or any removable storage device into the computer, it doesn't run automatically. This has presented some big challenges for me as when I click on my DVD-RW drive (J), sometimes the contents disk isnt even displayed. I tried to rename my drive name using instructions from microsoft (How to restore the system/boot drive letter in Windows) which resulted in a welcome screen with no users and no way to log in; (ctr-alt-delete twice didn't work). I formatted my computer again, and still the drive names were all messed up. I have no idea how to fix this now and I would really appreciate some support.

Hi welcome to PCHF is this the way the drives have always appeared it maybe due to the way there plugged in and there jumper settings for master and slave is there only 1 hard drive and is it partitioned into seperate drives perhaps.

No, i have formatted my computer before and never had an issue. C: has always been the boot drive.

is C ur boot drive or is I: your boot drive?

as far as i can understand, you fomatted your computer and now the autorun feature does not work? am i right?

well have you checked the properties of your DVD-drive, its in the device manager. there is a checkbox there for autorun


P.S. I sent you an email

"is C ur boot drive or is I: your boot drive?" Thats what I thought they meant i: = boot drive

Ok, I: is my boot drive right now. i went into device manager and double looked at the properties of my DVD drive. I could not find any auto-run checkbox?

So is them main problem the autorun on your dvd drive is not working? if so the answer is here How to Enable or Disable Automatically Running CD-ROMs
