Hello Superrican, and welcome to Vista Forums.

You might check in Disk Management to see if you have your hard drive separated into more than one partition. If the other partitions are not allocated, then they will not show up in Computer with a separate drive letter. Please post back with details about this if you need further help on it.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
