Aren't all windoze OS's pretty much the same? Just the latest to come out has more eye candy? ;) What's the point of having all of them loaded at once, I'm just curious...
I'm not sure but couldn't you unhide the drives in disk manager? (right click My computer-->manage--> Disk manager) Then just scan the drives with Norton. Or load the dat file onto a floppy disk, reboot with the NAV CD in, and scan all your drives from dos?
Just a couple idea's for you to play with until you hear from an expert. Don't do anything that's gonna screw ya, just helpin ya check the obvious first.
Good luck!
