Re: USB stick mounts over a network mount

The problem is that network drives were not assigned letters in accordance with the standard Windows uses. Specifically, Network drives Z->A, Local drives A->Z. If you don't manually assign the "local drive" letters to the network drive, the "problem" doesn't occur till you run out of drive letters. So the work around is not assign the local drive letters to network drive, or let "auto" handle both network and local drive assignments.

I would certainly do, but what I am looking for is a general solution of the problem. It is annoying to have to do that every time you insert it into another computer.

I have a remote network share, mapped under G: on my Windows XP. When I insert my USB stick, it mounts under B: in FDD-mode, but in HDD-mode it mounts as G:. Therefore I cannot see it. How can this be solved?
