Finding a specific Windows volume

I'm looking for suggestions on how to find out if a specific USB
camcorder is attached to a users computer (Windows only), and if it
is, which volume identifies it. If the camcorder is attached, there
will be a specific directory on it which I can use to help identify it.
Let's say I am looking for a folder called "DCIM" on an attached USB
drive. Doing this on Windows Vista causes all kinds of problems.
repeat with i = number of lines of the volumes down to 1
if there is a folder (line i of the volumes & "/DCIM) then
put true into foundit
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
I'm looking for a better solution.
Thanks.
