I did a no no
I turned my recovery Drive into a wireless adapter or something, it has an Icon of a wireless USB adapter with green lines coming from it. Its a WinXP PC Desktop. How can I change it back to a normal Drive?

Hi
Drive Icon - Change (thanks to Shawn)
Tutorials is great place to hang-out
Regards
Just the icon? Is the partition intact?
The pc sees it as a USB Wireless network I guess, since when I connect a real USB wireless Adapter it is named Wireless Connection 2.
What do you mean partition? im not that acquainted with the terms.
Ty for the replies.
If this happened recently you could do a System Restore to solve the problem. It will restore your computer to an earlier point in time, your documents should not be affected.
BTW this is a XP comp?
You said your Recovery drive has had it's icon replaced with wireless icon, correct?
A Recovery partition holds a factory image which when run will recover your computer to factory condition.
Is this the Recovery partition (drive) on your HD and is it still intact - check contents after unhiding files at Control Panel>Folder Options>View?
Will it make the Recovery Disks or run if you cue it up from Windows or press the keys to run it from boot - just cue it up to see.
Or are you referring to an External Storage drive?
