Probably is some incompatibly of the anti virus software, you can try to uninstall the anti-virus software, if you can uninstall it, try to delete the folder where the anti virus is and restart the machine, you can do that using a dos boot disk or any OS that is in a Live CD, like Bart PE, Ubuntu and etc, the easiest way is to use the Win 98 boot disk, but you have to know some DOS commands.
I you can't do that try to format and reinstall it, but use another anti virus i recommend NOD 32 from eset it's light and work's fine.

I have a WD my book drive. When I try to see the files on the drive they are Not there, But when I click the properties the drive shows half the drive space is used. how do I get the files to show be...

Hi,
It is due to virus activity. Some virus make the contents of the drive hidden, thats why user can't see the files. This can be fixed and data would be available to you. However, there are number of steps involved.
It is suggested that go to FOLDER OPTIONS - and select 'SHOW HIDDEN FILES & FOLDERS' and uncheck/ Deselect 'HIDE PROTECTED SYSTEM FILES'.

It would show the hidden files/ folders, if the system not infected Otherwise, from the clean/ virus free system you can see your data and copy all the required files/data. Select the required files and right-click and change the properties of the file by un-checking the hidden attribute. Please note that you can not change the properties (hidden attribute of the files) if the files are marked as system files. To change the attribute of such folders you can download and use iReset.

Also, make sure that you have a good antivirus installed and its updated. Scan your system and clean it.

Let me know if any further clarification/ assistance is required.

Hope it helps! Good Luck! Thanks for using Fixya!

I originally set up the drive with a windows XP 2000. When I plugged it in to my new windows 7, it wouldn't work. It shows the drive is maxed out, and I can't access it. I had used less than one half of...

How many files are on the drive? Are they in folders? The FAT formatting normally used for these drives limits the total number of files unless the files are in folders. I think the value is ~500 items - this is due to the minimum bytes to store each file. (If the files are in folders you can stack 500 items in 500 folders.)

One thing to try is to move the files to your computer, and then return them to the flash drive. (Formatting the drive after the files are safely on your computer is an option.)

Good luck.

Deleting files

You need to connect it to the USB port of a computer. For the Windows operating system (2000 and above) after you connect the jump drive to the USB port, it will show up as a new drive letter in the My Computer folder. Double click this drive letter and the contents of the file will show up and you can delete individual files or the folders by selecting them and hitting the DEL key.

Get back to me if you need more guidance.
