Hi. The 'Safely remove hardware' icon on my Taskbar no longer appears when I
connect USB devices. I have Windows XP Home Edition (with SP2) as my PC
operating system. The only way I can remove USB hardware now is to either
switch off my PC or just disconnect the device. Any idea how I can restore
the 'Safely remove hardware' icon?? If not what are the risks of juct
disconnecting USB devices as I used to do with Windows 98?
