After following your steps, I managed to delete the autorun.inf. At first I
didn't know if it worked because I still have the same problem after deleting
it. After I've restarted my PC it returned to normal.
Thank you very much Ramesh. I'm glad you're there to help me out. Hope you
can help more people like me out there. Many thanks to you again.
Problem solved.
