I have Windows 7 ultimate RC1 installed on C drive and W2K installed on
D drive.
With W2K booted I can see both drives in windows explorer and transfer
file between C and D just fine.

With Windows 7 booted I cannot see the D drive at all. It named the DVD
drive D. It will not see the W2k partition at all. Both are formated NTFS.

Just a stab in the dark... maybe a beta OS is still a beta
for a reason?

squawk out:

Go into drive manager and assign it a drive letter.
