Computer not letting me access phone/sd card.

I'm plugging my phone into my computer (Windows 7), but when I try to view sd card contents I am getting "Please insert disk" notification. It recognizes that I have it plugged in and it charges, but I can't access any of my phone files. I was able to do this 5 hours ago and since I've had this phone, this has never happened before. Before when I plugged my phone in I instantly got a pop up asking if I want to see files, but now I can't even access them without that. No idea where this new problem just came from.

This is really frustrating as I want to be able to do this.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Maybe the drivers are not set up correctly, try pdanet from the market and set up the drivers that way
