Default Re: How many drives/partitions do you have?

I have 2 hard drives in a raid 0 config (1 logical drive). That's partitioned as C:, D:, E:

My DVD-ROM is R:
My CD-RW is S:

I always make the non-hard drive device letters higher up in the alphabet so that if I expand my system with new hard drives, the automapping of hard drive letters that Windows does will not screw up my previous installs by grabbing the CD drive letters and using them. Plus it allows my USB thumb drive to drop in nicely as F: when it's plugged in.

Apparently this could be the problem with Starfury. The CD check appears possibly not to check drive letters any higher up than J: and therefore will never see the CD in either one of my drives. My old PC's drive letters are mapped out the same way, so it doesn't work there either. I hope MM just removes the CD check so those with us with this problem can play the game already.
