USB automount issues

Note that some of the obvious things don't work (like running the uninstaller directly off the "AutoRun" device):

from a Windows machine: (haven't tried it from VMWare or BootCamp)
goto the AutoRun device
double-click Castella.exe
(in the lower left hand corner of the window that (eventually) comes up)
<Castella Start>
<Castella AutoRun>
<Castella Uninstall>
<OK>
<says to click Close, but no close button, click OK>
REMOVE THE DRIVE
When you plug it back in again, it'll see new hardware, that it's never seen before.

now you'll have an unformatted disk, format it and you are all set.

Re: USB automount issues

First off don't post to topics that are more than 2 month old.

Second I'm splitting and moving this to Boot Camp.

Re: USB automount issues

Note that this only applies to IOCELL Castella drives, as far as I know, and is instructions on how to remove the virtual CD-ROM drive that appears on the device, but isn't useful on non-PCs, and is bothersome even on PCs.

Again, I don't know for sure if this works on BootCamp, VMWare, or other unreal PCs, but it does work on a Real PC(SM).

Re: USB automount issues

Only the boot method isn't standard Windows.
