Import from Ext. drive results in wrong file path

I just bought and installed Photoshop Elements 8.

 

Importing my pictures from internal drives occurs without any problems.

 

However, when I import files from an external drive (E), the thumbnails appear but their path shows up as being on external drive (F).  At the same  time, a representation of the folders I imported from appears on the folder tree of drive F, but with grey instead of yellow folders.

 

When I click on one of the thumbails, the program starts searching for a ‘missing file.’

 

No other software I own works like this. Both drives are in good working order — online and not sleeping, and are freely accessible by other programs and file managers.

 

Is this wrong parh issue a common problem?  Can it be fixed?
