Safely Remove Hardware<-- how i get rid of that???

its always on there, even with no usb key in... HOW I GET RID OF IT

maybe you have something else that is usb plugged in, like a modem, for example. open it up and see what is in the list. if you remove everything in the list, then it will go away.

Iv had this problem too... i think it is the usb ecause my printer plugged in had this problem.. hten i unplugged it an i just noticed it wasnt there anymore.. so i think its a usb reading summin...

I would think so. Our HP printer haas a card reader that windows detects as a "removable" device.

BTW, for those of you who thinbk you can just unplug file systems without "stopping" them, I would think again. Apparently windows caches data to be transferred sometimes, which could end up as bad news for everyone.

yeh, don't mess with good old b. gates because he'll mess with your stuff. its not really that much of a problem is it? do you have a card reader or a pict-bridge printer?

 

[onyo]

yea we have one of those 6 in one card readers...
?
