I've just had to reinstall Windows because Alcohol 120% screwed with my drive setup. I had an auxilliary drive attached to my computer to get data off of for the last few weeks, I got a lot of problems when I removed it. Specifically, Windows 'found' a "Plug & Play BIOS extension" and could not install it or find drivers for it on Windows Update. I searched google and found that this wasn't an uncommon issue. How many of you have had issues that you think might be related to A120?

I've been using an external USB with Alcohol installed for a while now, no problems. I did encounter an annoying bug when I upgraded to the first version requiring online activation. It seemed to switch back and forth at random between two hardware id's, causing me to have to log in to their site and toggle the active ID constantly. It has since fixed itself (probably server-side, as I hadn't patched the program). I've had no drive-related issues as you describe, though sometimes the copy protection emulation fails (the game detects the mounted image as a copied cd). Rebooting and remounting the image has always solved this issue for me.
