    by the way it isn't a fresh install, it was working before, but now the icon for the HD is gone from the "my computer"

    Check the hardware manager and disk management for the drive. There may be a fault with it, or there may be a conflict with another drive letter. Disk management (diskmgmt.msc) can change that.

    Are you sure there's no symbol next to it in device manager that shows a problem?
