USB-Connected Device
this is kind of off-topic for the forum, but i want to know, if i am disconnecting a USB-connected device from a computer in preparation for reformatting the computer, is there any special process that you have to use when disconnecting USB-connected devices, like printers or scanners?

Along the same thread ... When I have a usb "thumb" drive attached to a port while rebooting and I hit F12 (one time boot menu) among the options that appear is an option to boot from the flash drive. How do you make a usb flash drive bootable?cwwilson721

You CAN easily dissconnect a scanner/printer that way. To be safe tho, if undoing a flash drive/external HDD or the like,you should stop the device first.When you first plug in a USB device,an icon appears near the clock in the tray.Dbl click that,highlight the USB device you wish to shut down/remove, click stop,then remove it when it says it is safe to do so.cwwilson721

The links on the destination page are broken or the software is not found. Do you still have the files they referred to available?
Thanks in advance
