Environment:
Desktop : Windows 7 Ultimate
Laptop1 : Windows 7 Home
Laptop2 : Windows 7 Ultimate
Laptop1 can view and access the libraries on the Desktop. Laptop2 can see the libraries on the Desktop but can not access the folders. I'm not sure what to do here, I've triple checked that libraries are shared on the Home Group.

Every time Microsoft updates Windows 7 it causes new problems on what's been a relatively stable Dell XPS8000. The latest update causes my DVD / CD drive (HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GH50N ATA Device) to be inaccessible! By running System Restore I've brought it back from the 'bit-bucket', but I'd really like to update the OS without having the updates screw something up. Previous updates have caused printer problems; Mouse problems (both running on USB ports); etc.

I have a notebook an Acer travelmate TM8372TG-5454G50Mnbb. Windows 7 only. When I try and access the C drive, it says " c: is not accessible Access is denied." When I try and open some other things like CCleaner and MalwareBytes, it says "Windows cannot access C:program files......Check the spelling or there might be a problem with your network....." I have managed to run MalwareBytes (nothing found) & Windows Reg Repair from a USB in safe mode, it didn't work.
I have also run a full scan with Avast (Now Avast doesnt work and is always in unprotected mode). I also noticed in safe mode there is a "repair your computer" option, I tried that and no success either. I have been able to system restore in safe mode but that didn't work either. (I couldn't restore in normal admin mode, it wouldn't let me). I can access the internet ok but cant seem to open anything that needs to run, picture and movie folders are all accessible (but not via the c: drive).

I have just upgraded to Win 7 and want to use old hard drive (Seagate 500 gb) as external usb drive. Other drives work just fine in the caddy. However, when I connect this Seagate drive it does not show up in disk management. In device management it does show as USB Mass Storage Device.

A while ago my computer froze up and I couldnt do anything, so I had to restart it. When it came back up my D drive wasn't accesible. If i try to open it it says I need to format it to use it. If I click cancel it says
D: is not accessible.
The volume does not contain a recognized file system. make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted.
If i click format it says
Windows was unable to complete the format.

I got pop up in utorrent says a directoy is corrupt, I start to run chkdsk on that drive. in this case in have drive letter E.I click on computer, then go to the drive, right click, properties, tools, check now.
it says the drive is need to to forced to dismount. I click on ok. then in computers, the drive just show the letter, not size or disk meter. In the open windows on task bar, I did not see scan disk running, or maybe I accidently closed because I was switching between several programs. I thought restart pc the drive will show again, but after restart, the drive does not show up, it says 'E: is not accessible, the file or directory is corrupted and unreadabe.' I tried to start pc 2 times, still same.

I am running Windows 7 Pro (64). I have 2 hard drives installed. The (C) keeps my system and program files. A second 1GB hard drive is used for back-ups, pictures, music, etc. I checked and recked all permissions, and they are in order. There is only one user on the computer, Admin. I was able to access the drive up until a few weeks ago. I am able to scan the drive with Microsoft Security Essentials. I am able to access the drive while in safe mode, but for some reason I get this message while attempting to access it while in normal mode.
Location is not available
F: is not accessible
Access Denied

I've had a new problem on my 7077 installation.
Although my pc is running fine, when I try to click on my c drive, it says that it's not accessible.
There is therefore no information shown for it in terms of size, or or free space.
Even when logging in as an administrator, I cannot access it.
EDIT - I cannot even access my DVD drive, although I can access my D partition...
All was working fine until earlier this morning - and no, I haven't visited any 'dubious' sites recently, Any advice would be greatfully received!

I have a Verbatim/SmartDisk USB 2.0 Firelite external drive. The drive is recognized by the system and shows up in the Device and Printers management tool. While I can see the drive, I cannot view the data on it.
I have another external USB drive by Western Digital and it is fully recognized and accessible from Win7 RC1. The Firelite is recognized and accessible on a WinXP system. It was working on Win7 Beta.
I am running Win7 RC1
Thoughts?

I have windows 7 32 bit on a toshiba laptop. I am posting becuase this is a strange situation. I have a goflex exteral terrabyte. The computer recognizes it, lists it in the device manager and claims that it is working properly. However, I can't access it, I can't save anything to it, or get anything from it, or even see the files on it.
Now, I have a mac and a pc, the drive said it could be used on both. So i first used it on the mac (and it works perfectly) but not on the pc. It there a share error maybe?
I am an editor and I was hoping to be able to easily move from my computer (mac) to my clients (pc).
