I don't know what happened, but one day when I opened My Computer, all of the icons in there were a jumbled mess. There was no order, no grouping. When I right clicked and went to Arrange Icons By->Show in Groups, it sort of fixed the issue. Except, I don't have any headings for the groups. The headings "Files Stored on This Computer," "Hard Drives," and "Devices with Removable Storage" are gone. All of the drives, removable media and hard drive alike, are at the top of the screen. Shared Documents and Administrator's Documents are at the bottom under a heading of "Unspecified." I have attached a jpg to show you what I mean. Does anybody out there know how to get the proper group headings back for the My Computer screen? Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Nevermind, I figured it out. It was staring me in the face. Once I had them arranged in groups, all I had to do was arrange by type, and it worked. Thanks! Damn, talk about making myself feel like a noob! This issue is resolved.
