Story:
After install Norton Partition Magic 8 on my Windows 7, my last partition flies to die. I could not see that or change drive letter in Disk Management.

Solution:
- Install Acronis Disk Director Suite.
- Find Your partition and Right Click on it and Select Advanced > Convert to same last time (for example i select NTFS-Logical) and after commit the changes you can set a drive letter for your partition and make a celebrity for this :-D [specially thanks to Ahmad Ibrahim]

2- In the left-hand pane of the IIS Manager tool expand the machine node.
3- Click on the "Application Pools" node so that the application pools display in the main window of the management tool.

5- Right-click on the selected application pool and choose "Advanced Settings"
6- In the "Advanced Settings" dialog box find the category called "Process Model". The first row in the category will be the "Identity" row.

8- A dialog box called "Application Pool Identity" will popup. Within that dialog box there are two radio buttons. Make sure the first radio button titled "Built-in Account" is selected.
9- In the dropdown box below the radio button choose "Network Service" for the identity.
10- Click "Ok" to close out the "Application Pool Identity" dialog box.
11- Click "Ok" to close out the "Advanced Settings" dialog box.
