mounting drives

Did Mirosoft ever or finally include the ability to mount additional drives?

I'm NOT a fan of Linux or anything else, however, in those systems you could
create a folder and mount the folder to a complete different hardware
(drive) source. What a NICE feature. So far what I've seen from Vista is
just Windows XP with new background images on the screens.... LOL

Re: mounting drives

Hi Doug,

I'm not quite sure what you are asking, as XP was and has been able to mount
drives to a folder and so does Vista. It is done from Disk Manager, and you
must be running as admin.
