Probleem:
- Windows 7 drive letter is gewijzigd
Symptomen:
- Na opstarten van windows 7 werkt nog wel de muis maar het toetsenbord niet meer.
- Bij het overnemen van de computer met Windows 7 via RDP blijft het scherm gewoon blauw of staat er zelf dat de licentie van Windows 7 is vervallen
Oplossing:
- Make a full system backup of the computer and system state.
- Log on as an Administrator.
- Start Regedt32.exe (or Regedit.exe in Windows XP).
- Go to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices
- Click MountedDevices.
- On the Security menu, click Permissions.
- Check to make sure Administrators have full control. Change this back when you are finished with these steps.
- Quit Regedt32.exe, and then start Regedit.exe.
- Go to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices
- Find the drive letter you want to change to (new). Look for "\DosDevices\C:".
- Right-click \DosDevices\C:, and then click Rename. In Windows 2000 you must use Regedit instead of Regedt32 to rename this registry key.
- Re name it to an unused drive letter "\DosDevices\Z:". (This will free up drive letter C: to be used later.)
- Find the drive letter you want changed. Look for "\DosDevices\D:".
- Right-click \DosDevices\D:, and then click Rename.
- Rename it to the appropriate (new) drive letter "\DosDevices\C:".
- Click the value for \DosDevices\Z:, click Rename, and then name it back to "\DosDevices\D:".
- Quit Regedit, and then start Regedt32 (not required in Windows XP).
- Change the permissions back to the previous setting for Administrators (this should probably be Read Only).
- Restart the computer.
