Solve : Cannot Open C Drive? |
|
Answer» Just some clarification... is it your "C:" drive (Hard DISK Drive, or HDD) that you can't access or is it you CD drive? Also, it was asked earlier if you clicked on "Eject CD", but I didn't see any answer. If it is the CD drive, did you try this?Quote from: harty001 on MAY 31, 2007, 11:07:22 AM Just some clarification... is it your "C:" drive (Hard Disk Drive, or HDD) that you can't access or is it you CD drive?

Tara, if you really mean your C:\ drive, you are quite sure there is no autorun.inf file in your C:\ folder? It may be hidden. This problem sounds just like that is the reason. open a command window & type cd c:\ and then do dir and then dir /ah and see if there is one there. when I type the dir and then the dir/ah I do see a autorun.inf file. I typed del autorun.inf, but it won't delete. How do I remove it. Thanks so much.Quote from: tara0801 on June 01, 2007, 08:45:25 PM when I type the dir and then the dir/ah I do see a autorun.inf file. I typed del autorun.inf, but it won't delete. How do I remove it. If it shows up with dir /ah then it is a "hidden" file. You need to unhide it before it can be deleted. Here is how... open a command window & type cd c:\ and then do attrib autorun.inf -H At this stage a plain dir autorun.inf command should show it up and then del autorun.inf to get rid of it That should do it... hello again. when i dir /ah, i see an AutoRun.inf file when I type attrib AutoRun.inf -H is says not resetting system file It does not let me delete it either. What do you think? Any other way of deleting. Thanks.Quote from: tara0801 on June 02, 2007, 01:34:45 PM when I type attrib AutoRun.inf -H Sorry that's my fault I should have thought it might be marked as a system file. type C:\ then attrib autorun.inf you'll see something like this, maybe not all of these letters. You should definitely see an S, and maybe an H and an R at the left side. A SHR C:\autorun.inf If you see an S to the left type attrib -S autorun.inf then if you see an H type attrib -H autorun.inf and if you see an R type attrib -R autorun.inf The A does not matter if it is there. Remove it by the same method if you feel like it. now if you do this attrib autorun.inf the letters apart from the A should have gone, and this should now WORK. del autorun.inf If all this doesn't work, try it in safe mode (where you press f8 as the PC starts up) Thank you, thank you, thank you. It works. I can now open my C drive thru My computer. You all have been a big help. I couldn't have done this without everyone's help.Always nice to have a success. Good work, team. |
