This is awful!
Our computer has been acting strange lately and system restore has
helped but not fixed the problems.....So we used our Trueimage backup
disk. Thinking a full backup would be great in case of disaster.

Wrong

Trueimage wiped out everything and restored nothing. but created a
drive called F:

Using the disk that came with the computer we were able to get up and
running but we no longer have C: drive Somehow F: was created and
that is were everything is at.

Some programs will not give the browse option and will not install.

How can I change F: to C: without further problems.???

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
