Disk 0 and disk 1 are wrong

robinbredin · 27 Aug 2010 at 12:54

Hi, What it is, in Computer management it shows 3 Hard drives. Drive C is 500GB, Drive D is 320GB, and Drive E is 80GB. I'm trying to get my C drive to show up in Disk 0, but if I swop my cables around, then the system tries to boot off my D Drive. Any ideas on how to get Computer Management to show my C Drive in Disk 0. Thanks :confused:

Can't help but mine is just the same. Never really bothered me tbh

Why does it matter?

Swap cables around and change the boot order will probably fix it though.

That's the important bit after swapping cables around on some motherboards.

swap cables
On reboot go into bios and set disk to boot from if the mobo allows this

Best thing to do is replace the person in control of the keyboard...

Thanks that worked.

I'm still curious to why this mattered though.

Can I ask why you care?

What it is, I have just installed a Gigabyte GA-P43-ES3G on a new build. Normally I don't go into the BIOS, still working my way through each section off the BIOS.

This use to bother me aswel, You can fix it as some drivers puts them in the order how they are plugged in to the motherboard, This it a software/driver bug, see mine is all messed up too even tho there not

I have to admit it bugs me somewhat as well, although it makes absolutely no difference in day-to-day use and I mostly forget about it until I have a reason to open up disk management. Just a minor case of OCD I suppose.

although not important I'am sure its possible to change the drive letters around.

Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools\Computer Management, right click on drive to see it, just to be safe Under Storage , Disk management.

this way dont really need to do hardware swapping at all

You can't do that to the system drive though.

If you use the latest intel drivers, this fixes the prob, as I tried it a yr or so ago
