While you *can* change your boot drive letter with a registry hack, you will 
get an unstable installation of Windows.

Perhaps you need to clarify your situation.  Here are a few things that 
might be helpful to those who might have insights to help you:  There are 
probably other things that only you know that might be significant.

1>I have recently reinstalled my xp again
Prior to this 'reinstall', was this a single partition (single-boot) system 
or a multi-partition single boot system or a multi-partition multiboot 
system?
Depending on the previous answer,
Was it set up with hidden partitions so that only one bootable partition was 
unhidden at any time, and did you intent this to be the case after the 
reinstallation?
Was it you intention to make it a multiboot system where more than one 
bootable partition would be unhidden when the system is up an running?

Hopefully you get the idea that we need to know how the system was 
configured before, and what the intention of the reinstall was, and what the 
actual configuration is after the reinstall.
