Go to My Computer > Right Click > Manage > Disk Management.

Now just select D and format it from there.

he is using xp and he does not want to format the drive but open it as it contains some documents.

Try Explore, Looks like virus, not sure.

Right click on start menu and click explore and then on left panel select D.

See if this works.

yes he has Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 but he is a fool and put update on manual and not updated for a month.I told him to scan after updating and now it shows 4321 detectedI think that it is because of virus and after all the virus are deleted or disinfected i will then then tell you about it.
