got a little problem with my hard drive. I have a 12 Gig drive installed but for some reason my computer thinks I have 6 HD's with 2 GiG each. I tried going through device manager and reasiging the drive letters. But the option isn't available to me. Right now my computer tells me I have a C: D: E: F: G: H: I: drives..... yet unless I specifically tell it to it will only use the C: drive, so it's always running out of memory when i'm in the middle of something important. As a temp fix till i can figure It out I set my virtual memory to drive D: so It wouldn't use up my C: valuable drive memory

Sounds like this was the way your hard drive was partitioned. If you have access to the program Partition Magic, it may help you. If not, you might want to check out http://hardwarehell.com/fdisk.htm If it seems confusing, then ask before proceeding.
