OTcan i at least make it so windows doesnt even detect the linux drive however I don't know how. It is apparently Microsoft strategy to wrap the user in a warm safe environment unless that user deviates in any way from the orthodox Windows setup. Then it alarms the user with scary messages and warnings and otherwise makes the experience difficult. To use linux you need to learn to separate the valid info from the junk.

OT -
...so in windows explorer that drive's existence isnt even displayed.

Microsoft offers some programs called Power Tools on their web site and newer CDs. One of them is called Tweak UI and allows you to not display certain drives among other adjustments. This may help.
