Thanks Serge.
I have a similar one of this for my music files connected via eSATA to the H55M UD2H mobo(Drive D:\). cMP is in another SSD(Drive C:\).
Drive D is now not detectable after files deletion and substitution.
I believe your cMP and music folders are on the same external drive. Is that correct?

Try putting back in original shell32, shlwapi then go to cmp screen settings, add discs/folders. Then add D:\. Verify it plays files off of D. Then put back slimmed shell32, shlwapi.
Thanks for responding theob.
Did as you suggested. Can see the drive D in cMP setting but when attempt to click on the expand(+) icon, it said "Drive not formatted".
Can add drive to the list but it would not detect it.
Is it formatted the same as c drive? Are you in Jackwindows?
It's a different format. C is FAT32 and D is NTFS. I was trying to format to the same but Windows doesn't allow that. SwissKnife only format about half of my 1TB in FAT32 and leave the other half unformatted. I am now using command prompt to format it to FAT32 and it's darn slow.
Yes I am in Jackwindows.
Let's see when I am home this evening..
Best Regards
And it was!
Finally use Easeus Partition Manager to format my 1TB external HDD to FAT32 format for the music folders in a couple of minutes after spending the whole day with dos command line which doesn't work.
Once again thank you theob for the guidance.
This nice piece of software is available at the link below.
.
And now can have a go too on the idea of having only cue files in cMP drive.
I am planning to avoid esata. I have finally persuaded our local computer store to bring in several esata-to-sata cables and I am going to attach today this hdd to the onboard sata (blue socket), not to esata external terminal.
Serge.
Also, as I have a single hdd, the cmp case is very "empty" and is perfectly ventilated, and the hdd itself is the ms-dos boot device, which is necessary for it to be recognized by the registry.
that it can only be a single drive machine!
Am I correct to say this?
BTW, I had unknowingly bought a SATA to eSATA cable adapter for a few bucks some years back. Good for my H61M S2P mobo.
becoming typical, no matter how many drives. The number of files in windows\system32 and\drivers and fonts remains the same.
Sorry to answer only now.
I have finally got my esata-sata cable, The box works perfectly as a channel 0 master, So I'll start to experiment with JW ISO these days.
Serge.
Could had just reinstate ntfs in the registry to see whether it would works, but had since reformatted my external drive to FAT32,and with some hints from theob, managed to add the drive to cMP.
My Windows folder have an additional folder(Cursor)with just the arrow_rl file. I have problem with mouse pointer visibility on my screen even with the original cMP Windows.
Glad to hear that you have got your cable. Your method is definitely offers a lot more convenience than having to move the disk around.
Regards
