R-click on G drive reboots computer....

Since replacing 2KPro with XP Pro, r-clicking on my G:/ drive ( either the
shortcut icon on my ZDesktop or in Windows explorer) reboots the computer!
Further, when I try to delete the shortcut to the drive from my Desktop, the
same thing happens--the computer reboots. This is the only drive which
developed this problem.

The G:/ drive is a Zio card reader/writer. R-clicking on it used to give me
the Safe-eject option when I had 2KPro. Now it gives no menu but rather
reboots.

When I then changed the G:/ drive to one of my external hard drives to test,
it gave the same problem.

Now the G:/ drive is back to the card reader. I have a Safely Remove
Hardware icon in the system tray, but ejecting the card from the card-reader
is not the same as removing the hardware. So I've just been ejecting when I
believe it to be safe. But I would like to remove the g-drivre short-cut from
my Desktop.

Thanks for the help!
Janet
