No problem..
More than likely it is hard coded to do that. The Acer eRecovery stuff is
like that. Mine shipped withed a 400GB SATA, and it knows there is a D:
partition is close as I can figure. It doesn't give me the option to change
it, so that is what I am assuming. However my system also shipped with a
product from DTI, which DOES give me the option, along with the usual Vista
programs. Best advice. Use what suits you best.
