Same machine, another new install, 4 MSD.

No unused removables objects, nor does the system find the card when I
plug it in and put up a "found" box. It waits until "Refresh" and then
creates an object without any notice. Unplugging the card and then the
bay does not cause the object to be deleted, nor does "Refresh".

How do I get it to behave like the case described above where I compared
it to W2K?
