Hi Gilbert,

I found the answer on these MS newsgroups.

This error was created do to an issue with the way Gateway imaged some of
there drives with Vista. As far as I know it has not made it's way to the MS
knowledge base. You could check the Gateway KB if they have one.

Could you send me a screen shot of the System Properties dialog box with the
"C: Missing on it? Send to bertNS@mvps.org (Remove the NS to reply).
