Not quite, but you can do it with this code:

LPITEMIDLIST pidl = NULL;

if (SUCCEEDED(SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(NULL, CSIDL_DRIVES, &pidl)))
{
SHELLEXECUTEINFO ei;
ZeroMemory(&ei,sizeof(ei));
ei.cbSize = sizeof(ei);
ei.fMask = SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS | SEE_MASK_IDLIST;
ei.lpIDList = pidl;
ei.lpVerb = "open";
ei.nShow = SW_SHOWNORMAL;
ShellExecuteEx(&ei);
IMalloc * im;
SHGetMalloc(&im);
im->Free(pidl);
im->Release();
}

You need to include shlobj.h to compile this, BTW. I just can't help it, I like MS...
