That depends on which drivers you're using. The BIOS, and most DOS USB drivers, do indeed work that way. My drivers treat flash drives as a removable hard drive (quasi-plug-and-play) rather than a fixed hard drive, so you can plug and unplug whenever you want to. My drivers currently have other issues, such as slow speed and support for only USB v1 host controllers manufactured by Intel and Via, but that will eventually get fixed. You can download the drivers from http://bretjohnson.us and try them out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Infragistics Professional Build stunning WinForms apps today!
