Unfortunately I don't have a Win98 still up, due to a hardware wear-out. It's also been quite a while since I've done much maintenance on anything except Win2K and WinXP.

I do recall the fancy dance from way back in Win3.11 when you could use SET commands to "rename" drives so that the one that wanted to be D:\ would look like it was F:\ etc. Since you couldn't redirect to a drive letter that was in use, you sometimes had to set one to Z, set the other one to X, move the first one back to where the other one was, etc., all with a sequence of SET instructions in Config.sys and/or Autoexec.bat. Not really a recommended practice except for very simple cases.

Device Manager, or Hardware Manager, whichever you have, should let you specify the connection, or at least define a range for it, for any of the devices on the machine; but it's too long ago and the memory is too full of other stuff... I certainly can't argue with those of you who can actually look at it, and apologize if I gave you a goose - - - to chase.
