Goof? i guess so. thnx for that. just afraid of losing all my music again, not that this would cause it, but i lost it all before and was severly pissed. im afraid that if i uninstall/reinstall iTunes it will not have all my songs in its library again. for some reason when i updated the program once before this happened and it took me forever to reload everything and set it all up to my liking.

Here is what i have found thus far on this issue, i guess i am the only one on AF having this problem so far. i got this off of an apple forum.
"It appears that the AFS driver does not meet Windows Vista driver signing requirements and thus is not compatible with Vista. As a result, the AFS driver prevents the GEARAspiWDM.sys driver from functioning correctly resulting in CD/DVD drives ‘disappearing’ in Windows Explorer and applications using the GEARworks API, such as Apple iTunes and Norton Ghost.
Solution:
Disabling the AFS driver appears to resolve the issue.
This can be done by renaming the afs.sys driver file in the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers directory to afs.txt and rebooting the system. After the reboot the CD/DVD drives should re-appear in Windows Explorer and be available in GEAR and GEARworks powered product (such as Apple iTunes and Norton Ghost).
Note that disabling the AFS driver may result in the loss of the CD recording functionality in the above mentioned software that uses the AFS driver. "
Now, the problem is i do not have afs.sys driver. i have an afd.sys driver. im not that computer savvy so im trying to do what i can to get this fixed without messing stuff up to bad.
