Excellent idea but it didn't work. Anytime Win32_LogicalDiskToPartition is called it must do a select * because it seeks the floppy drive ever time, even if you are not looking for the floppy.

    Hmm - you are absolutely right.(++)

    I did try an alternative method - to access Win32_MappedLogicalDisk, to get to the same info, but that does not seem to work at all (Win XP). There is no indication of any error, and it returns zero logical drives.

    Sounds like you need to waste more time talking to M$ tech support, since Google provides no clues on this one.

         You're just jealous cause the voices are only talking to me.

        Microsoft's classic reply to everything... what a ripoff.
