Unable open D drive
Is drive D the second hard disk drive? If so, then check that the drive is
properly identified in BIOS setup. Open a DOS windows and do FDISK /Setup to see what Windows sees about the partitioning on the drive. Get a hard drive diagnostic utility from the www site of the hard disk drive manufacturer and use it to see if there are any hardware problems with the drive. If drive D is something other than a second hard disk drive, then different procedure will apply. -- Jeff Richards MS MVP (DTS) "Gabriel" wrote in message ... I have two hard drives in my system.
