Phantom Virtual Drive


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to remove a driver for a phatom virtual drive MX2I52G3 VHK130J SCSI CdRom Device (sic) from Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager DVD/CD-ROM Drives > where I uninstall it but on reboot and rechecking device manager it has been installed again. The drive doesn't appear in My Computer because I have removed it from Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Storage > Disc Management > Selecting the drive, right clicking > Change Drive Letter and Paths... > Remove. It also is still listed under disc management after I remove and also after a reboot.

Previous to my actions described I unmounted all drives and disabled all virtual drives in all of the virtual drive emulation software packages I had installed and then I uninstalled them. The packages I was using were Daemon Tools, Alcohol 120%, ISObuster PowerISO and Nero 7.

Is this causing you a problem, apart from irritation?

If not, I would suggest that you leave it. You can cause much damage by unnecessary tinkering about with drivers and such like.

I really do think you would be better off living with it and trying to ignore it.

I have known loads of computers become wrecked by people trying to remove little irritants like that :)
