So you mean the program would use a FOLDER or DIRECTORY instead of a letter? Hmmmm. Ok. I can mount a new hard drive that way, so I guess you could do the same with VCD's.

If it's stupid but works, it isn't stupid.

Back in the day my windows98 was split in over 15 hard drives, going up to Q which was my cd-rom drive. It never went to Z probably because of the lack of space needed for a drive to run itself. Whatever happened to drive B, rofl.

yeah, long live the 5.25" floppy. hey, at least you could clip the edge of those disks and make it a double sided disk, unlike the 3.5" disks. Anyway, I'm secretly glad the floppy is finally going away. I think I use one about three times a year.
