I don't know if I'm in the correct group for an answer to this one, but
perhaps someone can help.
I administer a number of XP Pro machines, and have fitted a USB2 hub to each
so that users may plug in their own memory sticks.
If I plug in a memory stick as Administrator, the additional drive shows up
with the next available drive letter, and I am able to use it.
If I log in as a user, although Windows recognises the device is present, no
drive letter is issued or available.
I thought this may be something to do with Shares and Permissions, and so
created a share that everyone could use, and the drive became available.
Of course, once the drive was removed and the machine shutdown, next time it
was used I had to go through the whole rigmarole again.
Can anyone suggest how to make this facility permanently available to all
users (other than the Administrator) for any memory stick they choose to put
in the hub, please?
