I bought a 32GB Mini USB and plugged it into the internal USB 2.0 card slot.
Since I'm never going to extract it, is there any way to make windows 98 view it as a local, non-removable disk?
I tried to remove the spunda from the removable option in Device Manager, but when I restart the PC, the option stays selected, and windows always sees it as a removable archive.

Why? as in, what difference would it make to you?

To be able to use it as a hard drive. I know that some programs cannot be installed on USB. Use it as a second disc.
