I had a hard drive die in my machine and had to install another. I lost most 
of my applications including adobe reader, but my operating system 
(Microsoft XP) was ok on a different hard drive.
Now I have reinstalled most of my applications and data back onto my new 
additional hard drive, but when I try to install reader back I get an error 
message referring to a drive letter that was an old partition on the old 
drive that failed.
Its getting it from a registry entry.  I have tried changing the drive 
letter in the registry or even deleting the key but it won't allow the 
change. Any ideas. I'm at a loss.

Regards
Joe
