Hi I have windows 8 old prevew and windows 8.1 installed. I have 8.1 on main drive and preview on another drive. I guess you are wondering why 2 of the same I use preview for security tests and other tests.

MY bootup is all good except I put the preview as a logical drive and when i boot to preview 8 it changes the drive letter to C and has boot in diskmangement .Are these normal things to see.

When I switch back to my main C drive all is good and C drive is boot,system,activepage, etc.

Thks

Yes and very normal now no matter how many drives you've when you install Window 8 or 8.1 on second or third drive he will name the Drive by "C" so don't worry it's normal.
