Displaying An Animation When Device Get Plugged

Post by superrockstar » Fri Nov 12, 2010 11:35 am

Hİ All...
Is it possible to show an animation when device is plugged to the computer? Toshiba usb flash memories are shows an animation when plugged already, but can we show with easylogger or another project too?
Thanks in advance...

where do you want the animation? if it's on the computer screen, just write an app. if it's on the device, just detect the power from the USB port, or use the USB reset event hook.

then if detect plugged USB then show message with defined so window is still on top of all .

Just a wild guess, since it is a mass-storage class device, the actual splash animation may well be an executable file stored on the drive itself that gets 'autorun' on connection. I doubt very much this will be possible for any V-USB device regardless.

I'm going to say that it's almost impossible. Autorun is likely disabled by default anyways.
What most likely happened was when Windows detected the Toshiba USB stick, it searched through Microsoft's database to automatically download and install a small application that was written by Toshiba, and Toshiba has to pay Microsoft a lot of money.

We must try to the stick without internet connection, then we can know that is it need to internet for downloading any application from database...
