You need to go to computer management- disk management. Rename the drive FGHI (which are probably the builtin media drives) as LMNO. Shut down, restart with you USB drive in the device. It should now come up as F- if not, go to computer management-disk management and set it as F. Voila.
Have a great day. Roy A. Ackerman, Ph.D., E.A.

When I hook an external USB hard drive, it shows up as the first available letter, "J", which isn't an option for the Wizard. How can I get my "J" external drive to show up in the transfer wizard defaults? It doesn't allow browsing for my selection and when I try to change the "J" external drive letter, F, G, H, and I are not listed as an option. Thanks in advance, Richard P.
