Hard Drive not accessible
I cannot access any files or folders on my hard drive. I
have tried my computer and the usual access shortcuts etc all to no avail. I keep getting an error message "explorer has caused an error in unkown explorer will now close" I have virus checked, the whole shooting match. However, the PC works fine!! Programs such as Media Player cd burner open fine when using a shortcut. All help gratefully received, please feel free to e-mail. |
