For you camera buffs out there

  • [アーティクル]

Have you ever popped in a flash card from your digital camera on a Windows Server 2003 machine and were annoyed that it does not automatically mount it and create a drive letter for you? So you then must open the Disk Management MMC and give it a drive letter manually, etc.

 

This was bugging me so I dug around and finally found out how to make this happen automatically, like on a Windows XP box.

 

Just run “mountvol /e” – this will set a registry key (NoAutoMount) to a 0, which defaults to 1 on Server 2003… Now your compactflash/sd/xd cards will automatically get mounted and assigned a drive letter upon insertion.

Note: This should also work for removable USB drives, too.
