Dave: What exact setting would I be checking?
The strange thing is that I didn't have this issue with this computer, prior to taking it to my University's I T department for servicing. This is why I think a setting might have been changed somehow.

I have just noticed a problem on the newly-acquired Windows 7 laptop I'm working with. When I insert a media storage device into one of the USB ports, such as an external hard drive, or a thumb drive, the computer gives me the sound indicating that the device is recognized. However, the device is not listed as an available device under "My Computer". The only way I can get the new device to come up under "my computer" is to shut down and then re-boot the computer. Is there a setting that I need to change in Windows 7 to get these external devices to be automatically recognized and listed in the usual way? I'm using Windows 7 and Jaws 17 here.
