Hello,
The hard drives on "My Computer" are folders and not drive icones. When I try to open them they ask me to choose from a list of programs to open the drive, non of which work. If I disconnect the external drive and plug it back in (USB) I can open it through the folder option. The internal drive I can't touch. What do I do to change them back to drive icons and gain access?
