Windows showing system reserved space in my computer

As above, when you install windows 7 it created that 100mb partition for something, but for some reason it's showing in my computer as drive E

How do I make it go away?

In Disk Management console you can just take off the driver letter assignment for it as it's not supposed to have a drive letter assigned to it.

Ahh, great never thought of that. It's been bugging me for days!

Thanks!

It holds the MBR and BCD records. Should always be hidden, I wonder why it assigned a drive letter to it!

Did you set it to be shown? When you were trying to figure things out?
Should never have a drive letter, what did you change to manage that?

Mine did it all by itself one day. Rebooted after an update and it had hidden itself again!

Not everything is an OPs fault!
