    Programs like TweakUI (in twaeks "my computer" section) have options to uncheck drives and thus, they can't be seen.

    Suggestion...

    Hi

    Might want look at ...

    Start | Settings | Control Panel | Passwords

    Click on tab marked "user profiles "

    radio button labeled "all users use same settings etc etc etc ... "

    Not 100% sure bout that...but thought it worth suggesting

    Cheers
    Jake
