I have a jump drive (256M) that I normally use as a quick way to transport
files.

I am used to plugging it in and explorer popping up to open a folder to use
it. Or I can go to
'My Computer' and access it there.

However, I plugged it in this morning to a workstation on a network running
XP-Pro SP2 and got nothing.
I do have the little icon in the tray to safely remove it but it didn't open
a window or is it available in 'My Computer'.

Ideas?


Jan,

While the Jump Drive is still plugged in:

01. Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Computer Management

02. Under Computer Management Console:

    Storage | Disk Management

    Notice the "Jump Drive" listed as one of the Disk x (Online)

    Right-Click on that drive | Change Drive Letter ...

Assign a unique Drive Letter that will not conflict with network drives ...

    Click on [OK] button to save these settings.

From here on your XP-Pro will always remember that ...

That's all there is to it!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
