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.

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.
