Re: Cannot open drive from My Computer



I'm pretty sure it isn't malware... as i have tried all the programs
or most
of them in order to try to fix the problem. the problem originated
when i
first installed apple itunes as it was needed so my brother could put
songs
onto his ipod. but it could have been something else which may have
triggered
it... i have also scanned the entire drive with avast anti virus,
norton
internet security and kaspersky internet security (not installed at
same
time)... and didn't find any viruses at all. also when trying to
access
hidden files and folders you cannot as the option in tools doesn't
apply. is
there any fix?? i have uninstalled itunes to try to fix it but it
doesn't. i
have also tried registry cleaners and tried enabling some startup
functions
in msconfig. but still no joy...

only thing i can think of is a clean install... only thing is i don't
have
an install disk... so i'll have to get one of a torrent site... i wish
Microsoft would allow you to download a copy from there website, and
for it
to be only usable with the licence key i already have... or for the
computer
supplier to give you a copy with the purchase of the pc. anyway that
is the
only thing i can think of to get around this problem.
