I think I may have found what is causing the problem but have no idea how to fix it. I started doing what JmtJet suggested by putting in my xp disk and doing a repair instal. When I got to the partition selecting part of the process I could see that my two hard drives are now the C: and D: drives. They used to be G: and H: Can someone tell me how this could be causing the problem and what to do about it? Thank you
