Use GetLogicalDrives, which returns a DWORD that's a bitmask telling which drive letters are assigned. Bit 0 is drive A, bit 1 is drive B, and so on.

        cout << "buf_size= " << buf_size << endl;



        cout << &buf[4] << endl;


        int i;
        for(i=0;i<buf_size;i=i+strlen(&buf[i])+1)

Depending on the number of bit set you need to add the character 'A' , 'B' as a string into the combo box.
