    In XP you can do it using computer management / disk management in admin tools.

    Damn beat me too it, Just to add if you want to change the letter of a CD or DVD drive too something like Y or Z simply put a disk in the drive and configure in the same way

    Sounds rather odd, never seen that personally. If you havent already done it retrace your steps and change the drive letters back. My guess is its something to do with Patition Magic.
    Sorry i cant help further
