I hope that someone here can help.
I have a partitioned hard drive, c and d.
c has operating system and a few programs.
d has most of my programs.
I have formatted c and reinstalled the operating system, windows xp
pro.
I can see that my programs on d are still there through exploring my
computer.
I cannot access my programs on d from the start menu.
How can I access these programs please.

Thankyou for reading this, I know I am a novice.
This is quite urgent.
please keep any instructions quite simple as I am no whizz-kid on this
thing.

You will need to reinstall the programs from the installation media.
Even though you installed the programs to the D: drive, there were many
references to them on the C: drive (where Windows was installed). Those
references are now missing.
