firefox_2006 Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Hello, I am having the above issue when pupils come to plug in their USB pen drives, the pc automatically restarts. Anyone know how/why this is happening? Regards firefox_2006
firefox_2006 Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 Hiya, what hardware and OS are you running? OS = Windows XP Hardware.....you mean motherboard? regards firefox_2006
PeterW Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Is it only pen drives? Do any other USB devices cause this?
Dos_Box Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Hiya, what hardware and OS are you running? OS = Windows XP Hardware.....you mean motherboard? regards firefox_2006 Yup, motherboard and processor please.
Geoff Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Also are these machines all the same? Or are the USB pen drives the same?
DMcCoy Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 turn automatic reboot off to see the blue screen, it might mention the responsible driver.
Uraken Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I used to get this on my machines, it was only for some users though admin seemed ok, i eventually assigned a permanent drive letter to all usb pen drives and it went away so you could try that?
Midget Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 You've got intel motherboards haven't you? I had this problem and had to do a new windows image in the end.

OS = Windows XP Hardware.....you mean motherboard? regards firefox_2006 Yup, motherboard and processor please. Only appears to be happening with USB pen drives as far as I can tell.... Motherboard = i80010 - DD Processor = Genuine Intel x86 Family 6 model 8 Celeron 1.70 GHz Sorry about delay.....messed up school website (d'oh)
tosca925 Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I had a similar problem, and again, went into Management, and assigned the USB pen drives a permanent drive letter. Tedious process, but it stopped the conflicts with existing drives. Nooo need for this just deploy USBdlm
ajbritton Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 That's a good one Tosca. I've added it to the essential software list on the WiKi.
tosca925 Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I deployed it via GPO and then copied the ini file over witha script. Works a treat, i use it for software restrictions.......bannig exe's etc via the letter U:
