Hide Drives from My Computer

You can play with friends  by great trick. To disable the display of local or networked drives when you click My Computer.

The steps are:
1. Go to Start -> run.
     type regedit
2. Now go to:
 HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer
3. Now in the right pane, create a new DWORD item and name it NoDrives (it is case sensitive). 
4. Now modify its value and set it to 3FFFFFF (Hexadecimal).
5. Now restart your computer.
6. Now, when you go to My Computer, no drive is shown.

To enable display of drives in My Computer, simply delete this DWORD item that you created. Again restart your computer. You can now see all the drives again. Magic.......
