Using XP Home SP2 with all critical updates.
I have an external USB drive (SATA 320GB drive in an USB enclosure). If I
power the drive on before I startup the computer, the drive's partitions
appear as "monitored" in system restore. I use that external drive on several
computers and don't want it to be monitored as it could create inconsistency
in the system restore points and corrupt them.
I already assigned permanent volume letters to the drive's parititions via
disk management. System restore would sometimes stay disabled for several
days on that drive, then for no apparent reason the drive's partitions would
be monitored again (maybe after I used the external drive on another
computer, or used another external drive on this computer).
Anyone knows of a permanent solution to that problem ?
