    Problem in System Reserved Partition

    Hello Everybody
    during formatting and installing windows vista on my computer tonight
    i did format the System reserved Partition Accidently, from the software in the installation process, then i installed vista as i do always



    everything went ok, except the System Reserved Partition
    after starting windows, System Partition Name Became Local Disk D:
    i cant remove his name to hide it, so how can i hide it

    i saw a lot of tutorials on the internet that says remove its label and it will disappear, but since in my case its local disk, i cant remove its label

    can you help me to hide it?

    All that I have is the tutorial that I gave you and what comes from Microsoft.
    Change, add, or remove a drive letter
