For windows 7 - Disable USB Mass storage steps

- launch the Local Group Policy Editor:
  1. Click on the Start menu.

  2. In the Search programs and files entry, type GPEDIT.MSC.

  3. In the left field, open Computer Configuration > Administrator Templates > System > Removable Storage Access.
  4. It can show possible option in diologue box whichever you want to disable , you can do it from that option
  5. Double click on the desired setting option and you select the desired option between Not Configured, Enabled and Disabled, the Help column at the bottom right corner displays the details of the option
  6. Select the desired option and click Apply > OK or just OK.

  7. For example if your setting selection is Removable Disk: Deny read access and:
    • Not Configured option is selected (default selection) - allows read access to removable storage disks.

    • Disable option is selected - allows read access to removable storage disks.

    • Enabled option is selected - read access to removable disks is denied.
Windows XP - Disable USB mass Storage Steps

1. Press Save/Recall key.
2. Press Explorer....and navigate to D:\Agilent\Service.
3 Double-click DisableUsbStorage.exe
4. Click OK in the SUCCEEDED message window that appears. If any USB mass storage device is connected to the E5071C under this condition, the Hardware Wizard will start, but the USB mass storage device will not work.
 
Adding to Maunil's reply, the policies that you have applied to Windows 7 may not work properly with Windows XP. You need to check if the policy is applicable to Windows XP computers. In any case check Group Policy Preference Client Side Extensions for Windows XP. Once you download and install the extensions computer will be able to process the new Group Policy Preference extensions.
