    In disk management;
    Right click on My Computer > Manage > Disc Management, there you can assign the letters you want to your disc~!

    Unless you want to reinstall Windows, yes. If you did, you'd have to make sure the hard drive you're installing Windows to is the Primary Master or simply unplug all other drives until you complete the Windows install.

    try using a registy editor to find and replace "C:/" with "I:/" so the default install folder would be "I:/Program Files/" not "C:/Program Files/
