No, the first I knew about this drive automagically being mounted was seeing the OOPS. If I'd know it was doing that, I'd have manually unmounted it; that's what I meant by doing things "differently"! > With my Sandisk Mini-Cruzer, I don't have any Oops-es but I do always > unmount it prior to unplugging it.

It shouldn't oops if it's mounted either, though ... and it also shouldn't lock up the USB subsystem, forcing a reboot. - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
