Why are there a bunch of removable devices?
My buddy has a budget Gateway with XP. He has 2 disk drives, but only one is showing up under the My Computer thing. I'm pretty sure that can be fixed in the BIOS menu, but it's also showing 4 more removable device icons. Any idea why those extra icons are there? There aren't any flash drives plugged in or anything.

I know why it's there, I just don't think it needs to be in this case since it's connected to one of the USB headers on my motherboard, and I don't plan on disconnecting it anytime soon. I thought of a workaround, though. I'll turn on the hide inactive icons option, and set this one to always be hidden and the ones I want to see to always be shown.
