Sorry Doug, I messed up. I inadvertently had two reply windows open for
your message and copied that link to an empty window and sent it by itself
instead of adding it to the reply that had some questions. Here are the
questions:

Has it always been this way or is it a recent change? If recent what
changed between when things worked and now? If it has always been this way
is this a new computer with Vista preinstalled, or an older system on which
you installed Vista? If the former have you talked with the computer's tech
support? If the latter, was this an upgrade from XP, or a clean install?
Did the drives work ok in XP?
