USB Flash Drive conflict w/ Mapped Drives

Sep 9, 2006 11:59PM PDT

I recently read a message regarding my probelm. A USB flash drive/memory stick does not function because it wants to use drive F. This is a poblem in my company where the computers are on a network. I know about changing the drive letter, but do not want to go through the gymanstics over the phone with end users. Some devices will seek first available drive letter. Does anyone know what manufacturers make a drive that will seek "First Available" Drive Letter? thanks. PeterF
