Hello
I am having problems that just seem to keep getting worse and worse. There
are 2 HUGE problems .. I'll try to be as brief as I can, but to give enough
info for you to review.# days ago, pc got caught in a start up circle, and
after trying many things over and over, I had no choice but to format and
reload everything. I have tried format and reload over and over but nothing
has helped. I have a 2nd drive (internal Drive F, that has become lost
during all of this. No matter how many times I have reformatted, Drive E
won't come online. I have tried doing just a "search" for it, and strangely
enough, it located it ... BUT, how do I get the PC to realize it's there? Is
there some procedure I can do that will copy the Drive from Search, and
"install" it that way?, and if I do, will I possibly lose info?
2nd Huge Problem .. I have 2 smaller external hard drives that I keep my
music on. Somehow, the Drive letters have changed. I have tried the trail to
correct this, but it hasn't worked ...went to the Control Panel, then Admin.
Tools, then Computer Management, then under "Storage"-- Disk Management,
clicked on a drive .. drop down choices .. slected "Choice for Change Drive
Letter and Paths"..This doesn't work .. it BLOCKS any lower letters and when
I try to "Add" a new letter (Ex. (H it then becomes Drive (H.. ( I
)..I've searched and searched troubleshooting, Kelly's, etc...I'm ready to
soak the thing in gasoline and send a match to it...I desparately need help
and would be gratefully appreciative if anyone can help.
Please help save my sanity ...
Thanks
