beagle and all--EQLSO Play Libraries not recognized--drive letter changed.

I saw beagles thread (his answer to someone elses thread) and donated a bit to Jimmy by the way. I have huge play libraries and my computer is looking for them on drive F: and I don't have a drive F. So, I have to go through every instrument that it is loading and change the drive letter to where the libraries are (external e-sata drive G. Beagle mentions locking the drives when you install but not only do I not know how to do that, its too late now (close to 500gb worth of instruments.) So, I am now loading the song (SC 1-14 of a project I am doing) and have to change the drive letter on every instrument--pain. How to avoid--how to fix.

    cheers, Michael!

    what I meant by locking the drive letter was in windows.  here are some directions on how to do that:
    http://www.itechtalk.com/thread3400.html

    most of the time this isn't a problem until you add or subtract a drive from your system.  windows assigns the same letter each time unless your system changes, then it decides if it wants to assign a different letter or not.  I always use this method to lock in the assignment even if the system changes.  that way I can add and subtract USB drives without windows complaining by changing the drive letter assignments.

    so you can do that to change your drive letter back to G if you want and that hopefully would solve your problem.  if something else is already assigned to G, then change THAT drive to something else like Z and then change your samples drive to G and then you can change your other drive back to H or whatever you want it to be.

    you also can set the default location in the play engine interface on the browser page , I think its under the the Favorites tab you right click on the library and you can set the default path for the libraries

    i know for Kontakt you can always "rescan" for the library at another user "browsed" location, but I don't have Play or any EW products, so I wasn't sure about that.
