Do I have a dandy !!  2weeks ago I took out the "C" drive (160Gb) because of funny things happening. I put in an 80Gb with Win2Kpro, p4, 2.4Gb, 1Gb RAM and all new programs installed ( not from old drive ). When that was running good, I installed another 80Gb drive as a slave, partitioned it into 25 & 55Gb, "F" & "G", formatted both and installed documents, videos and pictures. All went well until last Friday when,
because of antics of IE & microsoft, I switched to FIREFOX as my browser.
In computer management it used to look like
Disk 0 basic, active, on line, healthy & Disk1 basic  and it showed the partition
for F  &  g drives.

Tonight, Sunday, I wanted to put a menu document into "F" and I had trouble. I opened MY COMPUTER  and "F" was local disk, no circle showing Gb AND no
"G" drive!  So I went into COMPUTER MANAGEMENT and WOW ???
Disk 0 was okay, but look what happened to "F"  &  "G" !

Disk 1 basic, online, 1333.79GB
Section 1 - 64.00Gb unallocated.   Section 2    "F" 84.81Gb, healthy, active
Section 3 (shown in GREEN) 117.71 free space    and
Section 4  1067.26Gb  unallocated
AND in MY COMPUTER, when I go to open "F", I get a window saying that
"F" is not formatted, do I want to do it now !!!
I have AVAST pro for virus, Spy Bot S&D (which was slow opening ) and
Ad aware. Saturday I shut down AVAST and did a scan with the other 2. 
Spy-Bot found 18 entries which I deleted.
Has anyone had this kind of problem ??   Please help. Many thanks to all.
