Hello and welcome to PC Mech,

what OS are you using ? I believe Win9x, right ?
Open config.sys and remove LASTDRIVE=E, or set it to a higher letter than E.

Or, if you have TweakUI installed, look in the my computer section and place a check mark on the drives.

If you have anything in autoexec or config.sys and you aren't running any dos programs, uncheck those items. I had someone the other day with pathing information and sticking DOS into high mem... I'm like, you installed DOS? No, they didn't install DOS. They just didn't know any better. If you're running 95 or higher, get the things out of autoexec and config.sys. I realize when 95 first came out no one knew any better. Now we know better.
