Can you see anything an any CDs? Pop in a music CD and see if it plays.

There is no D or E drive, which is weird because there were some
yesterday.

:

You were looking at your computer's files, not the CD. Do a browse and
look
for the file on the CD, maybe your D or E drive.

I tried to do whay you said but a message that said
"C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXE.NT the system file is not suitable for
running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows application" That message comes up but
I
have
Windows XP Home Edition

:

Start - Run - Look for the Setup file on the CD (Or is it Install?
I
can
never remember which,)

When I insert the student and teacher edition it does not start.
Nothing
happens.

Take it to a paid technician and have it check it.

And just because it's working fine one day doesn't mean it can't die the
next.
