If a USB storage device is already installed on the computer, set the Start value in the following registry key to 4:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesUsbStor

When you do this, the USB storage device does not work when the user connects the device to the computer. To set the Start value, follow these steps:

1.    Click Start, and then click Run.

2.    In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.

3.    Locate and then click the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesUsbStor

4.    In the details pane, double-click Start.

5.    In the Value data box, type 4, click Hexadecimal (if it is not already selected), and then click OK.

6.    Exit Registry Editor.
