As i know, windows doesnt show any drives unless memory cards are inserted in, and then only it appears in my computer. Iv started to notice that the drives letters randomly show up even though theres nothing inserted inside. Does this happen for anyone else? Is there a fix for this?

Just to let you know its the drive icons that appear when nothings inserted inside the memory slots. Bit weird
anything on this?

Don't forget your ALT key in Explorer. Tools, Folder Options, View.
Did you do this?
Duh. I knew that. Just didnt remember it thanks A
Chuckle. Start (search), Control Panel, Folder Options does the same thing.
I think this is a serious bug in windows 7. Windows 7 is only ment to show the drive letters when something, either a memory card or a flash stick has been inserted in. But upon browinsg my computer without anything being inserted in, it shows all the drives
The only temporary soloution iv found to this is either a restart or uninstalling the drivers from disk manager and rescanning so windows reinstalls them which makes the memory card drives dissappear from my computer.
A screenshot to explain what I mean:
