My Computer Icon

[Guest]

Hi
I just upgraded from 2000 to XP. When I go to the My Computer icon and open
it all I see is the flashlight going back and forth over the yellow folder.
What can I do to fix this so I can see the drives on my PC? Thanks for your
help in this matter.

I found the problem, after this advice. HP printer software for 2500 series together with Musicmatch 10.0 is causing this problem on my machine. Furthermore, when uninstalling the HP programs, it's damaging the Musicmatch installation.

Thanks again

Should've done a clean install instead of an upgrade.
