Hello,
2 weeks ago i replaced XP with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on my PC and since then my D: drive randomly disappears.
I have been using the PC which has 3 internal disk drives with XP for the past 3 years never having problems with the disk drives.
Since i installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, the D Drive is dropped from time to time.
When i look under device manager the disk is completely gone, and also if i go to command, diskpart, list disks .... it does not show up.
When i restart the PC, it reappears again.
It is always the 2nd disk Drive D: that disappears.
Have any of you heard of this happening before or know of any possible fix?
Regards,
Dave
