Volume ID

I got one hard disk, which is split into two drives. One is about 40GB large
and has Vista installed on it, the rest is unformatted for future usage. Now,
I want to install a second OS on the unformatted half and need to give it a
specific volume id. I know how to change volume id, but will it change volume
id also for the half vista is installed on?

RE: Volume ID

1. Format the partition and make a note of its allocated drive letter, e.g. F
2. Download and run VolumeID from here
