That's strange .. usb drives should come after ur cd drive .. still see this link for changing ur drive letter *www.microsoft.com/resources/docume.../proddocs/en-us/dm_drive_letter.mspx?mfr=true

Goto Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management.
In the left side pan, double click Disk Management and in the right side pan, select ur CDROM & right click it. Select Change Drive Letters and Paths... & a new popup window will be opened. Click the Change button and select Z as ur drive letter. Click OK & now restart ur system. Reinstall all ur games from ur CDROM & whenever U will connect a USB, CDROM drive letter will not b changed.
That's the easiest solution as I think.
