Refer to:

To do this safely you may have to change the E/D drives back to what
they were, then swap them again as you go through the proper sequence
of attaching and detaching.

We installed MS SQL Server to our drive D drive E was the CDROM Drive.
We wanted to move the CDROM drive to drive D and the hard drive to drive
E. We change that around and corrected the registry entries -
repointing everything to drive E instead of D. SQL Server however will
not start it says it cannot find the databases. Where is this
information stored. How can I go about changing it?

Hi

The registry rebuild option from the setup application may be able to do
this, but I can't remember if I have tried it!
