    I may have just made a big mistake. On my new Lenovo x201, I bought Microsoft Office 2010 through Microsoft's website. I saw that the installer needed q:, and I found a Microsoft website that recommended that I reletter whatever drive is using q:. So I relettered the Lenovo rescue partition to r:.

    Now I have Office 2010 working, but I've found that Office *keeps* the Q: drive partition. So I can't change the Lenovo partition back to Q:. I'm guessing that it needs to be Q: (and there may be registry entries that point to Q :). I haven't done anything else yet.

    What should I do? Anyone run into this issue before?
