Accessing WinXP USB device functions

F

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to figure out how winXP is assgning drive letters
when you plug in a usb drive such as a usb stick and what actually
happens if you are taking it out again.


I guess that everything is set in the windows registry but analyzing
the registry "traffic" in winXP (e.g. with RegMon) didn't take me very
far.


Originally, I was looking for a way to set the default drive letter
assignment for a certain usb device class (usb stick) and how to
re-initialize and quit the usb device when it's plugged in, preferably
through a handy icon click rather than pluggin the usb stick out and in

again or clicking around at the windows systray with the mouse.


Is there a solution?


Thanks,
Farhadino
