External Hard Drive Options

[JVM]

Hi guys. I'm having a problem with my external hard drive. The one with all my music on it. The problem is, I recently moved my computer from one house to another. In the process, of course, everything was disconnected and reconnected. All of the files on my music player (I use foobar) are linked to my external by way of the D drive. However, when I reconnected my hard drive to the computer, it shows up as E.

In the "my computer" window (I'm using XP), the external shows up as "External (E:)" and the d drive shows up as "CD Drive (D:)". However, there is nothing in the "CD Drive", and its not actually a cd drive. I have one cd drive built in my computer which is "Q" and an external dvd drive labeled "G". This computer is a bit old (2004-5) and lots of things have been reconnected over the years, including having to reinstall the OS once or twice. How it got all whacked up to have my main cd drive (the only one it came with) as Q is beyond me, but I'm just worried about my music.

Now, I COULD go and redirect all of the files on my external (over 150GB total, but specifically my music) in Foobar, i.e. the path Foobar takes to find the music, to E, but this is time consuming, tedious and aggravating, not to mention that I've already had to do this once or twice.

I have no idea what could be taking up the D drive. Is there any way I can simply reassign my external, now labeled E, to D, so that the file paths in foobar are correct? Or is there any other solution that does not involve rebuilding my library into one going through E?

Hope I made clear my problem, thank you in advance.

Also, this came up when I tried to download Juan's album. When extracting it from winrar, I attempted to extract it to the supposed "D" drive just to see what would happen, and it said "Cannot create folder D:\" ... what is up with this thing? I tried to delete it even, using the delete button as no other option was really available.. but nothing.
