If you don't want the U3 remove it from the config menu and the sys folder which shows up as a different drive letter will go away. Just formatting it wont do it.

Same on my wife's desktop, where I've put the multi-reader. Problem is with the thumbdrive. On my laptop, the 2-gigger always is K and the 512 is M -- even though I stick em both in the same slot. Weird. At work, the 2g is F -- I don't care, as long as it appears, which the 512 does not, at all. Actually, on the laptop, the 2g shows as two drives -- the U3 System shows as F and the regular drive shows as K. Same Cruzer on the work machine doesn't show the U3 separately, though it does show the files in Explorer. Anyway, I'd like to have the 512 work at work because I'd leave it in my desk against those odd times when I don't carry the 2G -- Like Sunday when I was on assignment to the 144th Gettysburg re-enactment, walking around the heat and dust in shorts and t-shirt. On the way into the office to write, I grabbed the laptop, and forgot the thumbdrive. And the 512 in my desk didn't work. But I may have stumpled into the fix. If so, I'll post it. If not, I'll keep searching. It's just a case of Universal doesn't quite mean Universal, I guess. colin.fletcher wrote: > Well just to be difficult - mine always has the same drive letter when I am > on the road.
