I was wondering if there is a way via group policy or the
reg that will allow me to disable the floppy and or CD on
for all users on my domain?

Hi

To block specified drive letters:

Prevent Access to the Contents of Selected Drives
http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/1157/

It is the same as this Group Policy setting:

Prevent access to drives from My Computer
(User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows
Explorer)

GPO reference:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/gp/340.asp


You should combine it with this one if you want to hide the drives as well:

Hide Drives in My Computer
http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/148/

I have not found any Group Policy setting that disables floppy or CD-ROM
specifically (only one that can disable them from remote access).
