In this case I need to wait until a certain drive letter is available. I have a NetDisk which usually isn't fully ready until a little while after Windows loads. My music library is on the NetDisk so I don't want to start my music server software until after the NetDisk is ready. Is there a wait.for I can use in this situation? When the Netdisk is ready it puts an icon in the notification area.
Although… now that I think it through it might not even be an issue. The music server probably doesn't look for the disk until it actually needs to play something. I may just leave it alone and see how it goes for a while without changing anything.
