There should be an icon in the systray, that, when you
click on it, it says, "Safetly remove Hardware".

Thanx for reply
But what i asked for is:
When i plug in a usb pen drive it said "found new hardware" and after short
while it was installed but thats when i start having problems.
So where has installed, as in device manager we normally remove hardware.

You uninstall it from where I said, (below).

What problems do you have when you plug the drive in ?
Is it a new unused drive ?.
If so, it probably needs to be formatted.
But you didn`t say.

USB drives get several entries placed in Device Manager.

They are / can be in /under:

Disk Drives
Universal Serial Bus Controller....
Storage Volumes

Unless you know what to do, it is very complex.

this for all non present USB drives:
