in thread Getting list of drives on pc
I do have a Windows box to test it on and it looks like this largely works. A couple of notes though. My floppy drive is A:, and it brought up a message (twice! and I cancelled both times) indicating that there was no disk in the A: drive. This would be awkward for a non-interactive user. Second thing, my CD drive is D:, and it completely skipped over that when the drive was empty, not recognizing it at all. No error message, no nothing. However, with a CD in the drive, it recognized it the same was as for all the fixed drives. So, caveat emptor with removable-media drives.
