I just tried to access my folder for digital photos and
found that it takes forever to load, then gives me the
message that drive c: isn't formatted, would i like to.
Now, The folder I'm trying to access is within another
folder on my c:\ drive (Maxtor 20 gig). All the other
folders are opening fine. This is frightning because It
has half a year of photos in it. If anyone can help me
with this please respond here or e-mail me thanks.

I'm on ntfs and xp professional.
