Locate drive
Posted by KDL on December 8th, 2005


Hi.....on my computer, Drive C is master drive, drive D is CDRom, E is slave
drive, F is DVD drive...there is a file on my computer that is located on a G
drive...I have no idea where this G drive came from and when I try to open
the file it says the file can not be found and to check the location. Is
there a way to actually hide drives so they can not be located? If so, how
do I go about locating the file?

Thanks so much!

Have you thought about viruses or spyware?

Do you have some type of USB flash disk/MP3 player/digital camera/photo
quality printer on your system? USB flash drive (include memory cards), MP3
players and digital camera may show up as Removable Storage devices. Several
photo quality printers come with flash memory card reader, which also show up
as drives.

KDL

What is the make and model of your computer?

How do you know the file is located on a G drive? From what source are you
getting this information?

Where are you getting the information about how your drives are lettered?

Have you used a Partition Manager? Have you replaced an original hard drive
with another?

Do you use TweakUi?
