This is another trick you can play on your geek friend. To disable the display of local or networked drives
when you click My Computer,

go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer

Now in the right pane create a new DWORD item and name NoDrives. Now change the value and set it to 3FFFFFF (Hexadecimal) Now press F5 to refresh.

If you click on My Computer, no drives appear. To enable display of drives in My Computer, simply delete this DWORD item. The right file is as follows.:

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer]
"NoDrives" = dword: 03ffffff
