My Disk Drive Letters won't be reused. For instance, whenever I plug in a USB storage device, it will use letters, for instance, F:\ and G:\ and the next time use H:\ and I:\. They aren't even connected and I still can't use them. Now I can only connect one thing at a time using B:\. Help!

Go to Map network drive in one of your folders. Try and force the mapping of your drives to a certain letter. Once it gets disconnected, it is not supposed to keep the drive hanging like that. It should've went back to B, then D, then E...etc.
If you cant get this resolved by forcing it, then you will need to do a scandisk and make sure you reset your drives. Or you can just reformat and next time make sure you use the NTFS partition.

Are the drive letters still showing up "My Computer" ? IF they are have you tried "disconnecting or deleting them" See if that lets, you otherwise try going into
compmgmt.msc, and going through the drive management to see what you find there.
