If you have a USB memory stick, you can use it and
simply remap it to the A: drive. Insert the USB
memory stick in one of the front panel USB sockets.
In my case, it turned out to be the J: drive. It
will likely be something else on other systems.
Then, I went to the Windows Desktop and right-clicked
on "My Computer." Clicked on "Manage" and "Disk
Management." All the drives appear in the upper right
portion of the resulting window. Then, I right-clicked
on the J: drive and "Change Drive Letter and Paths"
to call it the A: drive.
That probably sounds harder than it really is.
It's just a few appropriate clicks to change the
drive letter.
Of course, the flashing light on the USB memory
stick is a little annoying... :-)
