Missing drives (harddrive, cdrom and maaped network drives)

Hi

I installed vista now that the service pack came on msdn. The system it self
runs ok, but one day i start my laptop and i just setup a home server and
mapped a network drive. I wanted to access that drive and went to the
"Computer" icon on my desktop. Now heres the fun part: No harddrive or cdrom
drive or mapped network drive. I can only see the "Other" bar that contain
my messenger shared folder icon and a internet backup drive icon. I have
absolute now idea why this happened. I didnt install any hardware or
software ass i recall and i have spent hours googling and look at settings
in Vista and are beginning to pull my hair out. If a reboot in safemode the
harddrive and cdrom drive is there. And i guess if a create a new profile i
guess its there, so its my user that needs a fix. I am lasy and having a
domain user, so i dont want to backup, delete and create new profile and
restore. Please advice.

Thanks

Martin.

And i can access theese drives by manually typing C: in a explorer window or
run or what ever just not through "Computer" icon on desktop...
