Does anyone know if it is possible to have the card reader icons from a 6-in-1 card reader to not shows as drive until a card is inserted into them. Right now I have C and D as hard drive and optical but also have E,F,G,H,I, before my second hard drive shows as J. I would like for the card readers to work like the usb ports with removable media showing when inserted. Is this possible? Thanks

Sorry XPUser I should have been more clear.

Yes, for them not to show up in Windows Explorer or My Computer and take up drive letters. I would like them to work like a flash drive where they don't show until something is inserted into them. Is that possible?
