USB Generic Volume designation |
|
|
I've got a 6 in 1 USB card reader. A while ago I somehow configured my
computer up to only show the Smart Media slot and name it drive D: (so I
wouldn't have to keep selcting different drives until I found the one
corresponding to the smart media slot).
Well now I have a camera which uses compact flash cards, and although the
device is working correctly every place I look in system manager, I cannot
for the life of me find out where to assign a drive letter to the compact
flash slot of the card reader.
What is the process for reassigning a drive letter to a USB generic volume?
Thanks,
Paul B |

Lunchtime hit, and I spent some time and figured out how to assign or remove
drive designations as needed from the various card slots in the reader.
Sorry if I've wasted anyone's time.

Hi, Paul.
Congratulations on figuring it out! Now, please let us in on your secret.
;^)
In a newsgroup, we take turns being student and teacher. Now it's your turn
to post the answer (or the link to the answer) for others who may be
wondering. If you do that, then you certainly haven't wasted our time.

Sorry, I replied to a post on harddrive not appearing instead of my own
post. This is what I said:
"...
I had to be logged on as the administrator, went to Administrator
Tools>Computer Management.
Once there under Storage>Disk Management I was able to assign drive letters
to devices that were installed correctly, but didn't have logical drive
letters."
Hope that helps you,

Hi, Paul.
Thanks for that explanation. It should help others who come here looking
for help with the same or a similar problem. ;<)
