okie folks, after cleaning this computer till it had a clean HJT log, I have suddenly found that drive d:, you know the nice little drive that reads all your cd and dvd needs, no longer shows up...
upon inspection of the device manager, it says driver not found/corrupted or file missing.
Of course i couldn't rollback the driver (i tried) cause i did all my work with sys restore off and so on and so on.
So I do all the troubleshooting and windows searching thing to try to restore missing folder so I can run a disk.
No go there.
Here is what I am doing, please let me know if it is the right thing...
From another computer..
I am taking a windows disk and saving it to a 1gig jump drive and going to use it on the damaged comp for the driver search to locate its missing files for download.
God I hope I am making sense to you all. Please let me know and dear God how I hate an emachine
