Hi

I have a strange problem with System commnder.
I created 4 primary partitions of NTFS and installed win2000 on the first partition and configured it.

Next, I used ghost to clone this partition to the 3 more primary partition, at this time I have 4 partitions on teh same drive installed with the same copy of win2000.

Then I installed systems commander 7 to be able to choose which partition to boot from.

When choosing the first partition as boot it works great.
As soon as I choose the second partition, I get to the login prompt, try to login and it gets me back to teh login prompt.

System commander by default when using NTFS hides all the paritions that are not active.

I decided when booting from the second partition to unhide the first partition, this worked great, I could boot from the second parition and log in.

What I found out that now Drive D is the system drive and drive C is the original partition C.

Anyone know how do I configure system commander to make sure that the current boot partition will be always C?
