Ho to disable Securedrive?

#1 Post by TPBigot » Tue Sep 30, 2008 12:22 pm

We have almost 30 TP's, many are T6x. All run XPP. All users are domain-users, and run as "power user".

As the admin, I would like to disable the Securedrive for the users. I have gone in and unmounted, and removed...but the securedrive (R:) continues to re-appear.

Is there a simple way to just diable this feature?

Thanks in advance....TPB

You may need to clear the security settings form the BIOS level by disabling them and rebooting.
