Hi,



How do i disallow laptops/PCs to read memory cards from cameras and
handphones? I already set HKLM > System > Current Control Set > Services >
USBSTOR > Start = 4. I noticed only USB Mass Storage Devices could be
successfully blocked, but not SD cards & etc.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Hong Jin

I don't know which version of Vista you're running or if it will help
but have you looked in gpedit.msc and tried the settings in:

Computer Configuration / Admin Templates / System / Removable Storage
Access?

Disable the devices within your BIOS, then make sure you have password
protected your BIOS.
