    Hi Everyone :wave

    Yahooooooo.... a place where I know my problems will definately be sorted. A few forums I have joined have been, well to be polite, rubbish. My 4 yr old g/son even tried to help me out... (bless him).

    Anyway, I'm from Liverpool UK and once I get the drivers installed for my printer I will be able to let you know about my puter, etc.

    A few weeks ago I went to my usual website (cardmaking craft) & whooooosh, computer crashed, even before I had logged in. It's okay now thanks to a friend of my hubby's. Apparently this website had been infected with a trojan or worm, there must have been a huge amount of computers effected as there are a few hundred members from across the globe. It took me forever putting everything back on, as you can imagine. It's now nice & clean. I lost family photographs and quite a lot of craft templates, papers, etc.

    Here's a question which I am desperate for help with. For some reason today, the disk drives are not showing up when I go to 'My Computer'. Btw I have windows xp home edition (sp3). All that's there is (A) floppy and (C:) Local disk. No sign of (D) or (E). Checked in Device Manager & there next to Sony cd-rw crx230ed & Sony dvd rw dw-u18a are yellow question marks.

    Is there someone who can help a lady in distress :))), if I don't laugh I'd only cry !! :cry

    Please please help :)

    Hi Eileen

    Anyone from Liverpool ( a great city IMHO) is very welcome on Majorgeeks, so Welcome :)

    re-post your question in the Software area of the forum HERE again as many more members will see it their and also add what Windows version you are using and tell us if you did a clean or re-install of Windows on that PC as it makes a difference to recovery.

    rolleyes To the best of my knowledge since I've been here I don't recall ever seeing anyone post that they still had their problems. This is a great place and We are grateful you chose MG's to get help. You couldn't have picked a better place.;)
