Hi Ram, this can be fixed easily.
First of, please create a new system restore before you try the below mentioned.
Go to Run and type regedit and press enter.
Press Ctrl+F and make sure that you have checked the options, Keys and Match whole string only and then type mountpoints2
and press enter.
Delete it by right clicking on it and selecting Delete
Keep searching repeatedly using the search for more of these keys and then delete them.
After you've deleted all keys pertaining to mountpoints2, try opening your drive.

Please get back to me if it doesn't work.

Ram, try opening the drive from Start, Run, enter the drive letter, eg C:
Check that there is no autorun.inf file in the root; if there is, delete it.
