I have Windows XP that came on my Compaq, what I can't seem to do is get the look of Windows 98/95 when using Windows Explorer.
What I want to see is all my drives: C:, A:, D:,and removable F:, plus "My Documents" which contains my photos, and downloads, etc.
But when I click on "My Documents" to get to my folder, I lose "My Computer" which containg all my drives.
How do I get BOTH at the same time, like Win.98 did?
I tried the classic view, I even tried going to "Control Panel,appearance and themes, select taskbar and start menu,start menu tab, select customise, advanced, scroll down to my computer, check display as menu, clicked ok twice to close".
Did all that, but still I can't see all, can see My computer OR My Documents, but not BOTH!
I would like to be able to drag and drop like I did in Win.98/95
HELP PLEASE

In My Computer, click Tools > Folder Options. Then click "Open Each Folder In It's Own Window". Click Apply, and then you're done
