Virtual Drives problem

**AzNsMaRtGuY333** · 10-30-2004, 12:04 AM

i have 5 extra virtual drives. i have D(DVD-Rom) and E(CD-Burner). F, G, H, I, J are the extra virtual drives. i tried to uninstall it by going to the drive properties and hardware, but the drives come back after i restart.

i use daemon tools and the virtual drives are K and L

why do i have F,G,H,I,J ???

go into device manager and try seeing if they're listed in there somewhere.

Windows ME.

Have you tried uninstalling Daemon Tools?

That is Windows 2000 ;-)

Anyways what you want to do is remove the "host" device of the CD-roms. It will be most likely be listed as a SCSI/RAID controller. Try viewing devices by connection.

Take a look.

virtual = software

anyway,

if you wanna get rid of those drives, just set the amount of drives to 0 in deamon tools.......

and the drives come back cause on reboot daemontools restarts again (you prolly set it to run @ boot)

i uninstalled that controller because when i clicked on properties that was the only one that said generic. The other two said the provider was from microsoft.
look at the time on the bottom. 5:30 PM

it is now 5:40. after uninstall i rebooted and the drives came back, so did the controller i uninstalled 10 minutes ago.

I also circled the compact disk I,J,F,G,H. They are the virt drives that im trying to get rid of.
