Then reboot

Step 3: If the Drive letter you booted on comes back with the incorrect drive letter, run taskmgr on the booted server, start regedit:

Locate the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices
Find the drive letter you want to change to (new). Look for "\DosDevices\C:".
Right-click \DosDevices\C:, and then click Rename.

Rename it to an unused drive letter "\DosDevices\Z:".

This frees up drive letter C.
Find the drive letter you want changed. Look for "\DosDevices\D:".
Right-click \DosDevices\D:, and then click Rename.
Rename it to the appropriate (new) drive letter "\DosDevices\C:".

open a CMD:

bootsect /nt60 ALL /mbr
bcdboot c:\windows

Reboot Again
