does that mean it has been ran over(although with undelete program you
can see the pre desktop folders)
or perhaps inside thebios selecting secure, or disabled instead of
Normal for acess to the predesktop partition would change things?(what
do those terms mean anyway-bios says:secure=no change,normal=hidden
form os,changeok,disabled=not usable.not hidden(reclaimable)?


I think you might find it useful to disclose the exact model number of
your laptop. Not all IBM Thinkpads are the same. It might also be
helpful if you would disclose what you're trying to accomplish.
