XP Home edition, SP2: My Windows explorer "Tree" has been
showing a "Removeable Disk F:" for a while now, but I have no such
hardware. I may not have noticed it, but recently I was installing a
new peripheral, and Windows kept insisting on searching "F" drive for
a new driver, although I had that CD in my normal "E:" drive. Of
course, nobody home at "F" drive. I eventually worked around that.
                         Any ideas? Thanks, Bonnie
