Did you restart the machine and see if it would search for it on it's own?

You could use system restore and restore the computer to the last time just before it died. Thatshould recall the state thatit was in and return the missing driver for the drive..
OR
Or otherwise You could load the driver for the drive from the manufacturers website,Or from your OS website. It should not be too difficult to get it back.
Your machine seem to have misplaced the driver for the drive.
It Happens more often that you think.I can bet your OS is using the FAT32 file system instead of NTFS.
With the FAT systems, any break in a process in executing a program can result in total loss of the use of the whole process.
NTFS on the other hand has a stored copy of each process that it can recall and use if there is a problem with the one being used.

Start up the computer then after it start clock on <span style="font-weight: bold">start</span>, yten <span style="font-weight: bold">all programs</span> then <span style="font-weight: bold">sessories</span>, then <span style="font-weight: bold">system tools</span>, then <span style="font-weight: bold">system restore </span>.
then whe youopen the program it will ask youto chose a restore point. Chose a date and time which is before the incident wher the drive stop working. Itwill reset the programs to thatpoint and it should rteturn the use of the drive. Try that, and if it does not work come back and iyt will get more onerous though.

Yes about theFAT and NTFS files systems.
NTFS file system is more robust, but windows XP can be loaded on the computer ineither FAT32 or NTFS.

since FAT 32 is quicker and make more money for themanufacturers, they are likely to load it in that format.

But you can chose which format when you are loading it every time . Since it ask you which file system you want.

Busineses usually use NTFS, since previous business versions of windows came in that format only.

Vista is inNTFS format too. Soit does not crash as often as FAT32 systems.

... but all systems can crash.
