If you are using Win2000 or XP you can use the Computer Management Tool (Start>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management) and select Disk Management.
The drive name can then be changed by right clicking on the drive you want to change and selecting "change drive letter..."
This procedure only works in the OS is not booted from the external drive.
