Introduction
The eToken NG-FLASH is a device that combines the powerful capabilities of strong authentication with the convenience of mobile data storage. The eToken NG-FLASH includes both a USB readerless smartcard and a flash memory. The memory can be partitioned into a mass storage allocation and a CD-ROM emulation. The eToken NG-FLASH Partition Application 2.1 enables the partitioning and initialization of the tokens flash memory according to the customers needs. Using the eToken NG-FLASH Partition Application 2.1, the administrator: Defines the eToken NG-FLASH flash memory allocation for a writeprotected CD-ROM. The remainder of the flash memory is allocated to mass storage. Loads files of applications and data into the ROM partition. An Autorun feature enables the loaded applications to run directly from the eToken NG-FLASH.

Preparing the Secure Drive Application Files

The eToken NG-FLASH Secure Drive Application directory includes an eTFlash folder which contains prototypes of the files required for installing the application. This application provides password-protection for locking and opening the devices mass storage partition. The files required for locking and opening the mass storage partition are: lock.exe Runs the eToken NG-FLASH Secure Drive Application eTFlash.exe Provides an icon in the system tray for opening the eToken NG-FLASH Secure Drive Application autorun.inf Enables the eToken NG-FLASH Secure Drive Application to enforce password protection whenever the device is inserted

Troubleshooting
Autoplay of Inserted Media
Inserting an eToken NG-FLASH device with CD-ROM emulation may result in the Autoplay feature starting. The Autoplay begins reading from the drive as soon as the eToken NG-FLASH is inserted. This behavior is not required in the initialization stage and may be annoying during the process of multiple initializations. To temporarily disable the Autoplay feature, please see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/126025

Conflicting Mapped Drives

In Windows XP, there are a number of mapped network drives on the computer. The insertion of an eToken NG-FLASH device can cause a conflict with the existing mapped network drives. Microsoft has documented this problem as: New drive or mapped network drive not available in Windows Explorer. For a workaround, please see: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=297694
