it happened after i try to use total video converter portable, it also happened on another computer

One safe rule, if something causes a major problem like that once, I frankly wouldn't use it again. But since this has happened all ready that is beside the point...but I would never use this again. Obviously there is a problem with it.

Your HJT log doesn't show anything indicating infection, though that doesn't mean there ISN'T one there. There will be other steps I want you to try after you have attempted the fix below.

Have you checked in the Device Manager to see if the drive is recognized or has a yellow exclamation point notation? It could be that all you need is a new driver. Have you rebooted the computer since this happened? If not, do so now. That would be your first step, then checking the device manager, if there is a notation that there is a problem with the drive. But even if the Device Manager says the drive is ok try reinstalling the drive. Go into Device Manager (right click My Computer, choose Properties. When that opens click the Hardware Button, then the Device manager button) and Uninstall it. See my attachment on how to do this.
Then reboot the computer. The computer should see the "new drive" and reinstall it. Then try again to have it play a disk.
Also, stop that SpyBot TeaTimer. It is more trouble than it is worth.
To do this do the following:

* Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode
* If it is not already set to do this, go to the Mode menu
select
Advanced Mode
* On the left hand side, click on Tools
* Then click on the Resident icon in the list
* Uncheck
Resident TeaTimer
and OK any prompts.
* Restart your computer
Report back after following all the above steps.

hi thanks for your promp response, and i understand about not using a software once is giving you problems, however i did not know and thats how i found out that it was actually the program the gave me problems i think is was probably a virus, anyways i followed all of the tips given to me by you and i am still having the same problem i am thinking about restalling the operating system to see if that would take of the problem

Q

Have you followed all the steps given here http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread134865.html including the MBA-M scan and the ESET scan? That is the way to tell for sure if you have an infection or not. The HJT occasionally will show indications of infection but certainly not always. Run those scans and post back with the results. A reformat is a very drastic step to take, especially with no guarantee it will fix your drive...plus how are you going to run the reinstall CD without a working drive?

wow, i did not think of that, i really appreciate your help, i have not done what you subjested but i will right now and i will post back thanks again for all of your helph
