Drive letter conflict (Windows operating systems)
As mentioned in the ‘
System Requirements ’ section of this manual (on page 3), the
DT6000 requires two consecutive drive letters AFTER the last physical disk that appears
before the ‘gap’ in drive letter assignments (see
Figure 10.5
). This does NOT pertain to
network shares because they are specific to user profiles and not the system hardware profile
itself, thus appearing available to the OS.
This means that Windows may assign the DT6000 a drive letter that is already being used by a
network share or Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path, causing a drive letter conflict. If
this happens, please consult your administrator or helpdesk department for information on
changing drive letter assignments in Windows Disk Management (administrator privileges
required.)

In this example, the DT6000 uses drive F:, which is the first available drive letter after drive E:
(the last physical disk before the drive letter gap). Since letter G: is a network share and not
part of the hardware profile, the DT6000 may attempt to use it as its second drive letter,
causing a conflict.
If there are no network shares on your system and the DT6000 still will not load, it is possible
that a card reader, removable disk or other previously installed device is holding on to a drive-
letter assignment and still causing a conflict.
