I assume the server is running some version of NT: If the drive is hidden on the machine, use the disk manager to assign a drive letter to it. If the hidden share has been removed, just re-create it (usually the drive letter+$). Note that the C$ (ord$, or whatever) share cannot be browsed, but you can connect to it if you know it's there.
