    hello...i have no clue about this but....i don't have my A:\ drive anymore(i know i'm probably one of the 25 people left in this world that still uses this thing)...i use it for word and everything...but when i went to put in my disk and pull it up...it said the drive didn't exist anymore...i never messed with this drive ever and i can't figure out why it would just delete it's self...i have error guard and was wondering if i restored the registry would it effect the whole comp..and all of the programs that i installed onto it afterwards? or is there a simple way of pulling this drive back up?Any and All help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED...Thanks..

    EDIT: OOPS sorry...i just realized i put this in the wrong forum...meant to put in pc general discussion..

    since i'm here who all still uses this dinosaur of a drive...i can't believe how much the disk for these things have dropped..i think i picked 15 of them up for like $3..lol...i only use this for microsoft word and i really don't know of any other use for them(but i still would like to have it back...)

    does your A: show up in bios? make sure its still enabled. then go into device manager and see if its there

    after the third one, who knows. I was pretty disappointed. thats what you get when the creator (James Cameron) doesn't want any part of it.

    i think that had to have been one of the worst endings ever....the whole three movies did nothing to stop the war from starting...sheesh...at least he is doing a better job with his new acting role as a governor...lol

    That was the good thing about it I found, all films try and set you up for the finale.
    The Terminators, set you up for the prevention of the war, but didn't.
    I thought this was a different approach which worked quite well.
    However I do agree that the ending was a little lack luster (crappy director)...............
