Working With Files And Folders; Viewing Drives - Gateway Solo 1200 User Manual

Working with files and folders

You can organize your files and programs to suit your preferences much like
you would store information in a file cabinet. You can store these files in
folders and copy, move, or delete the information.

Viewing drives

Drives are like file cabinets because they hold files and folders. A computer
almost always has more than one drive. Each drive has a letter, usually Local
Disk (C:) for the hard drive and 3½ Floppy (A:) for the diskette drive.
To view the drives on your computer:
Click
Start
Drives

Double-click the drive icon. If you do not see the contents of a drive after
