Right click on My Computer on desktop > Manage. Goto Disk Management. It will show all your partitions. Right click on the Partition/Drive whose Drive Letter you wanna change and select Change Drive Letter. Assign a new drive letter to it.

Change your pagefile location back to C drive.Then change the other drive letters as you want. Finally change your pagefile location back to whichever drive you want.

Right click on My Computer on desktop > Manage. Goto Disk Management. It will show all your partitions. Right click on the Partition/Drive whose Drive Letter you wanna change and select Change Drive Letter. Assign a new drive letter to it.

If this doesnt work then you have to format your hard disk i think. Or you can take it to the Customer Care place and they'll make it work by changing some parts which determine the drive letter in the HDD.

Sometimes one should follow the thread too, instead of blindly posting replies.
