"Removable Disk" shows up in Windows 7 even when USB Flash drive isn't there

Hi Ed… thanks for the suggestion. Can’t believe I didn’t think of that…must of been too late.

This is the first windows 7 that I have and I’m not familiar with the icons and the way its set up, all my other stuff was XP’s

I feel like a real ■■■■■  because I think you might be right. it appears that there are 4 usb ports on the machine, but they always stay there whether there is something in the port or not. I thought by pulling out the flash drive it left something on the machine.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion. I’m gonna run down to Bestbuy and see if those icons show up on some of the other computers. I put a screen shot of what stays on my machine if you’re interested.

Thanks again… Scott
