start your computer to safe mode,
restore your system to earlier date, the problem will be solved
it is only coding problem

your browser has nothing to do with it, but I would try a virus scan because he may have had something malicious on the thumb drive/flash drive(thats the rectangular thingy) that could have infected your PC. BTW don't call the geek squad they are really the Todd Squad!

Did your cousin remove the portable drive? If so, restart the computer, he may have left some processes running or something.

Reboot your computer and push whatever will get you into setup. F2 is the one that works on my computer. when you are in setup, check to see if it shows the drives you are missing .they may be disabled . Now restarting it could be an easy fix I would hope. If you have the software for your computer program, you may need to format and reinstall your windows.

well, your psychic aren't you? JK
??(o) ????xo -------------- r you sure?
I can't find anything online about that message.
sounds strange to me.
need more info
a screenshot would be great.
also, what are you running XP or VISTA
if your drives where disabled you wouldn't be able to run windows at all
the new H drive must be a reference to the USB drive.
check add and remove programs for portable storage devices programs. remove it.
and the device manager for portable storage devices or Other devices
remove them too.
